Augusta Vigil for Peace in Ukraine – Mar 7

Members of the Interfaith Fellowship of Augusta, members of the Progressive Religious Coalition, and members of the Central Savannah River Area Peace Alliance, an affiliate of Carolina Peace Resource Center, issued the following statement calling for peace in Ukraine:

We mourn the loss of life and the suffering which the Russian Federation’s invasion of Ukraine, launched on February 24, 2022, has greatly intensified. With the Love at the heart of all our traditions and organizations, we call for an immediate ceasefire, a withdrawal of the Russian military from Ukraine and a commitment to resolving differences between the two states peacefully.

On Monday, March 7th, from 4:30 p.m. to 6:00 p.m., all residents are invited to the intersection of Walton Way Extension and Jackson Rd for a roadside vigil for peace.

Organizers have prepared signs with messages such as “Love your Neighbor,” “Side with Love” and “War is Not the Answer.”
