Vigil for Peace in our World

for 30 mins
Grand Parade, Bath BA2 4DF
Ideas for parking: Waitrose -Podium Car Park 9A Walcot St, Bath BA1 5BN; or the Car Park by St John’s Church- 5A Manvers St, Bath BA1 1JQ, Afghanistan

In Partnership with Bath & Wells Diocese, Bath Interfaith Group and The Ammerdown Centre, you are invited to a ‘Silent Vigil’ to pause, reflect and stand in solidarity with the parts of our world where there is conflict, injustice and unrest.
The Diocese of Bath and Wells would like to emphasise this is NOT a political rally but a gathering in unity, love, grace and compassion.

We will do this by gathering in the ‘Parade Gardens’* in Bath on Sunday 19th November at 2.30-3pm. You are invited to bring with you an LED candle or a ‘real’ candle in a jar or lantern to ensure it stays alight (in spite of the) weather.

There will be no speeches, address, readings or prayers – just a simple gathering in silence where we will wish each other and those around us peace in our preferred language. We will conclude with ‘May Peace Prevail’ and then leave in silence.
