📢NO TO NUCLEAR WEAPONS❗

📢NO TO NUCLEAR WEAPONS❗

Join us for a Christian ecumenical peace vigil on Saturday 2nd August, 10.30am-12.00pm at Faslane Naval Base as we mark the 80th anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.

This act of public witness will include prayer, readings, reflection and song, led by:

✝️Most Rev. William Nolan - Archbishop of Glasgow and President of Justice & Peace Scotland.
✝️Rt Rev. Rosie Frew - Moderator of the General Assembly of the Church of Scotland
✝️Most Rev. Mark Strange - Primus of the Scottish Episcopal Church

Justice & Peace Scotland along with members of The Iona Community will gather in faith to call for nuclear disarmament and raise our voices and prayers for peace. As Christians, we are called to be peacemakers and to uphold the dignity of every human life. Nuclear weapons are fundamentally incompatible with this call, threatening indiscriminate destruction and a future built on fear and power-wielding rather than on fraternity amongst nations.

🔹Departing Glasgow, Gordon Street (beside Central Station), 9.15am
