Candlelight Vigil at Cricket Hill Thursday Night 8 p.m.

1,000 American soldiers have now been killed in Iraq -- join a candlelight vigil
Will you join me in an emergency candlelight vigil, on Thursday evening, September 9th, to honor them and reflect on the loss of their lives?

Our vigil will be simple and dignified. We'll gather at 8:00 P.M., and stand in a circle, silently, for 45 minutes or so. Together, we'll acknowledge the sacrifice made by these 1,000 brave American men and women.

Please sign up to come, at:
