All mid-Missouri peace advocates are invited to join in the 20th Annual Peaceworks Hiroshima-Nagasaki Commemoration to be held beginning at 6 p.m., Saturday, August 5 at the Gordon Shelter at Stephens Lake Park (note this is a new location). The event will include a potluck dinner, lantern making, paper crane folding, music, speakers, performance art and a commemorative lantern float at 9 p.m. Don't miss this chance to share in the solidarity of the peace community and join in renewing our collective commitment to eliminate the nuclear threat. Note: On event type above this is listed as a vigil. It is not one. There were only five choices, protest, vigil, teach-in/forum, news conference or training. None of these really apply. The gathering is a coming together of the peace community in remembrance and renewal of commitment. It's a chance for us to experience the solidarity of our shared commitment to ridding the world of the horror of nuclear weapons and to take strength from our mutual concern and apply it to our daily work and lives.
