Mother’s Day Honoring Vigil: Please join us for a special vigil in Dover on Friday, May 10 at 2:30 PM at the office of Congressman Chris Pappas, 660 Central Avenue. As famine and the Israeli government's bombing of refugee camps in Rafah escalate an already catastrophic situation in Gaza, join NH Peace Action, AFSC, Veterans for Peace, the Community Church of Durham, Palestine Education Network, Peace with Justice Advocates of NHCUCC and other groups to implore Congressman Pappas to act for an immediate end to the violence and an end to US military aid to Israel. We will have a program of songs and interfaith prayers, and we will read Julia Ward Howe's Mother’s Day proclamation. A small group will enter the office to relay our messages to the Congressman's staff. "From the bosom of the devastated earth a voice goes up with our own. It says, “Disarm, disarm! The sword is not the balance of justice.” Blood does not wipe out dishonor nor violence indicate possession." - Julia Ward Howe's proclamation for the original Mothers Day in 1870
