vigil

[**saracidal**]

Military action against Iraq has begun. In keeping with a standing
agreement, the Dallas Peace Center and the North Texas Coalition for a Just
Peace invite the public to a vigil for peace. There will be two vigils,
Thursday and Friday evenings, March 20 and 21, at both at 7:00 p.m. in
Dallas City Hall Plaza, Young and Akard Streets, downtown Dallas (under the
flags). The purpose of the vigils is to offer a gathering place to uphold
reverence for life, to mourn with those who suffer under violence and
oppression, and to pray that violence may be restrained and that justice and
peace may be shown strong in spite of warfare. Ministers from local faith
communities will be present to lead prayers. The public is invited to bring
candles, signs, musical instruments, poetry or other readings and friends.
Bring change for meter parking. Call 214-823-7793 for more details.
