In one way or another all of us have had to face the harsh reality of gun violence in communities, or in our friends’ communities and unfortunately an ever increasing occurrence of gun violence where our most vulnerable go to learn and grow, our schools. Our own children are leading this conversation that has affected them so deeply and are teaching us to confront our own fears and demand change. In light of this, faith and community leaders have come together to sponsor and invite us to engage in community conversations around the issue of gun violence and how it intersections through a variety of ways in our lives.
On Sunday, April 22nd: Gun Violence Awareness Day, the whole community is invited to gather outside for a time of remembrance, music and prayer, and then move inside for a community forum with a diverse panel of speakers who will share their expertise and perspectives.
