COVID-19 has impacted our individual lives, our community, our country, and the entire world. It has caused suffering and brought death in unprecedented numbers. And it’s not over.
You are invited to join in a visible demonstration of support for all whose lives have been ended or altered by COVID-19.
Our vision is to have as many people as possible show up on Friday evening, February 19th and be in place by 7:00 PM when bells will begin to ring for 19 minutes. You are encouraged to bring a flashlight or cell phone to shine while you stand socially distanced with others. Candles will be available in front of First Presbyterian Church (300 Market Street) if you prefer to hold a candle. We hope to line both sides of Market Street from Second Avenue to Fifth Avenue as well as both sides of Fourth Avenue from Liberty Street to East Street to create a visible witness in the heart of our town. To be in place by 7:00 PM you are encouraged to arrive between 6:40-6:50 PM.
There’s no program, no agenda, no strings attached. We just hope you’ll show up to express support. We’re in this together.
Questions may be directed to First Presbyterian Church at 723-9200 or admin@warrenfpc.org
