Public Invited to Gather at NDNU 'Peace Pole' Today

In the wake of the events in Boston on Monday, the Notre Dame de Namur University campus ministry invites the public to attend a gathering at the campus' Peace Pole for prayer and signing of cards to be sent to NDNU's sister school in Boston.

From NDNU Center for Spirituality/Campus Ministry:

In response to the events that happened in Boston on Monday, we will gather today at 12:05 p.m. at the Peace Pole outside of the Chapel. We will offer prayers for those who were killed or injured and prayers for peace and an end to violence. If you cannot be there in person, feel free to email Amy Jobin - ajobin@ndnu.edu with any prayer intentions and we will read them when we gather. This will be an ecumenical prayer time, meaning that prayers from all faith and spiritual traditions are welcome. Please feel free to bring a prayer if you like.

We will also be sending a card to the students, faculty and staff of our sister school in Boston, Emmanuel College, to let them know we are thinking about them at this time. You can stop in the Center for Spirituality any time today if you would like to sign the card or drop off a card of your own.
