Global Day of Prayer: Justice for George Floyd and Black Liberation
As we approach jury selection for the murder trial of the ex-officer who killed George Floyd, we reflect on the resilience of the community at George Floyd Square and the courage of the Floyd family. We hope you will join us for an interfaith Day of Global Prayer – either in-person at George Floyd Square, or virtually – for prayer, meditation, and expressions of love in the name of Justice and Liberation. For more information about how to participate, follow our link. All event times CST.
