There will be a short vigil in Wokingham on Monday 15th May 2023 from 12.30 to 13.30 to mark International Conscientious Objectors Day.
The vigil will remember those around the world, past and present, who resisted killing others and faced persecution and imprisonment as a consequence.
There will be periods of silence interspersed with short readings of poetry and prose, including the experiences of objectors themselves.
People of all faiths, and none, are invited to bring their own short readings, including perhaps those writings of relatives or friends who have resisted armed conflict in the past or present.
The vigil will be held in the Quiet Area of All Saints Churchyard Wokingham (RG40 1TN) by kind permission of the Rector.
