Looking for Peace in a Warring World

Friday, December 28, 2012 - 7:00pm

Feast of Holy Innocents

This ecumenical service is one of a series organized over the last several years by the Des Moines Area Area Ecumenical Committee for Peace. “Looking for Peace in a Warring World” is the theme of this year’s service. We will raise our prayers, and strengthen our resolve to end war in Afghanistan, prevent war against Iran, seek a peaceful resolution to the conflict in Palestine/Israel and insist that “war is not the answer.” The service will include prayers, music/song, and a performance by the Gateway Dance Theater.
