Pax Christi USA, the Dorothy Day Catholic Worker, and many other faith-based organizations are planning two events on Ash Wednesday, February 14, to express our strong support for a ceasefire in Gaza and a just peace throughout the Occupied Territories and the Middle East.
>> Join us for Mass at 11 AM at Lafayette Park, outside the White House — ashes will also be distributed.
>> After Mass has concluded, starting approximately at noon, join a prayerful, ecumenical witness at the White House.

Thank you. Will either or both of the gatherings be on video or recorded? Peace and all good to you! Terence Lover
Not sure! We will keep you posted if that works out.
Yes, that’s good and appreciated. I live in NY and, if I can’t be there in person, I will be there in spirit–either through viewing or in personal reflection. Thank you!
