BRUNSWICK, ME — The Brunswick Area Interfaith Council (BAIC) is pleased to announce an interfaith service in response to the ongoing conflict in the Middle East. As faith leaders from a variety of backgrounds, we feel a need to speak out and strive together for an end to suffering. If your heart is breaking (as ours are), if you find yourself bereft of hope or isolated, please consider joining us as we come together in solidarity with one another and with all who are suffering.

The interfaith service will include readings, prayers, wisdom, and music from our various traditions, and is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, February 28th, at 4:00 pm at Fellowship Hall in Pilgrim House (of First Parish UCC, directly across the street from Bowdoin College). (Snow date: 4 pm on the 29th.) The service will last approximately 1 hour, followed by a time of fellowship with Middle Eastern snacks to highlight a common connection shared through food in the region. Registration is free but required for security purposes. Visit https://rb.gy/f967ip.
