Refreshments will be available after the service in the lower level of Dominican Center.
A panel/open discussion will follow the service in Dominican Center at Marywood from 3:30 - 4:30 p.m. sponsored by Pax Christi Grand Rapids. Three panelists will head the discussion surrounding this event theme: How to pass values of peace, justice and nonviolence to future generations in our society, in the family and in religious institutions.
