The Calvary Baptist front lawn will be the site of an interfaith vigil for peace and justice in Ukraine on Wednesday, March 23, 7:00 p.m. It is sponsored by the Newark Interfaith Leaders, of which Pastor Corey Fields is the current convener. In case of inclement weather, the event will move indoors to the Calvary sanctuary.
The vigil will include a personal testimony and update from Vadim Medvedev, a Roman Catholic resident of Ukraine. On hand to share words, readings or prayers will be several clerical leaders from multiple faith traditions, local and state elected officials, and Kevin Smith, the CEO of Habitat for Humanity of New Castle County and a recently ordained deacon in the United Methodist Church.
The vigil will be livestreamed on Calvary’s normal streaming site: calvarybaptistnewark.online.church.
Look for more details and let us know you’re coming on the Facebook event page.
