Vigil on Walpole Common, Saturday, May 1, 10:00 - 11:00 AM

Please join us for a peace vigil on Saturday, May 1 from 10:00 to 11:00 AM as we call for the end of Afghanistan and Iraqi wars and the redirection of funds to human needs. The vigil will be held at the Walpole Common at the corner of Main and West Streets across from the Walpole Cooperative Bank. Tragically, the number of U.S. service personnel killed in Afghanistan since the beginning of the war reached 1,000 on February 23, not to mention the thousands of Afghanistan troops and civilians killed and wounded and the hundreds of thousands of refugees who have fled the ongoing fighting.
