If you can spend next Wednesday's lunch hour in downtown San Francisco, try to be here:

CIVIC CENTER PLAZA (ACROSS FROM CITY HALL)
San Francisco

The United Religions Initiative, San Francisco Interfaith Council, and Jewish Community Relations Council in partnership with community, ethnic and civic groups invite you to join

AN INTERFAITH VIGIL TO CALL ATTENTION TO THE HUMAN TRAGEDY UNFOLDING IN DARFUR. JOIN LEADERS OF ALL FAITHS AND ETHNIC COMMUNITIES TO CALL FOR AN END TO THIS ATROCITY AND TO ENGAGE THE BAY AREA IN HELPING BRING CRITICALLY NEEDED RELIEF!

The Save Darfur Coalition, composed of faith-based, humanitarian and secular civic organizations, has identified Wednesday, August 25, 2004 as Sudan: Day of Conscience. On that day, communities across North America are urged to engage in interfaith activities -- designed to raise public awareness about the horrific situation in Darfur and to urge the international community to take immediate and decisive action to stop the killing, the rape, and the destruction of villages, and to assure that humanitarian relief reaches all those in need as quickly as possible.
