We will solemnly mark the 79 years since the dropping of the atomic bomb on Hiroshima, Japan on August 6, 1945. From that distant tragedy a lasting connection between All Souls Church and Hiroshima was created by the power of children’s artwork to create hope in the midst of despair.
We encourage you to join Rev. Rob Keithan at an interfaith rally at 10 AM on Tuesday, July 30 and check out other events (including nonviolent direct action) planned next week. If you’re interested in connecting with other.
A year ago, generous members of this congregation helped the family of Mohammad Monir Karimi settle into an apartment in Falls Church, Va. Recently, Monir's brother Mukhtar journeyed here with his wife and three kids after a 2-year wait for visas. Like Monir, Mukhtar had worked for a contractor supporting the U.S. military in Afghanistan. The new arrivals will need cash, furniture, and a variety of household goods.
