Peaceful Presence is sometimes hosted in-person, sometimes by Zoom, and sometimes hybrid (with both options - to join in person or via Zoom). Watch for updates!
Multifaith Voices for Peace and Justice coordinates “Peaceful Presence” gatherings, a monthly prayer service on the evening of the 11th of each month, offering a time of quiet multifaith prayers for peace and justice and strength for the journey. Each gathering is hosted by a different local faith community, includes contributions from diverse faith traditions, and has its own format and theme.
All are welcome: those of all faith traditions and of no defined faith, those who are suffering at the hands of their own government, those who need a pause in the midst of intensive work on behalf of others, and all who would like to pray with others for the well-being of all. The prayer time will include elements from several religious traditions.
Upcoming:
Saturday, January 11 - hosted by Palo Alto Buddhist Temple, 2751 Louis Rd, Palo Alto 94303
February 11 - hosted by Congregation Beth Am (Jewish) in Los Altos
January 11 Peaceful Presence will be IN PERSON ONLY.
Join in person at the Palo Alto Buddhist Temple 2751 Louis Rd, Palo Alto 94303
