Vigils Against Violence

Vigils Against Violence is a movement to stand up against the violence of murder in our community. A group gathers at the site of a homicide within the Raleigh city limits, to offer prayers, readings, and reflection. The aim is to reclaim the place of violence and death, and to transform it into a place of prayer and hope. Often the victim's family members or friends are present, so it also becomes a time of support and a sign that the community cares and remembers. Anyone is welcome to participate in the vigils.
