Vigil for peace for all students and staff
The InnBetween will host a vigil for peace for all University students and employees. To be together, be silent, express your emotions and thoughts, to pray, to light a candle. Whoever you are, whatever religion, take your time to stand still, in a moment of peace. The vigil will be organised on Wednesday 18 November, from 18:30-19:30, Capucijnenstraat 122 and will have a very open character, for people from all backgrounds, worldviews or religions. Please come and show your support to our students and staff from France, Iraq, Lebanon, and all those places in the world that suffer from violence and hatred.
The vigil will be led by Petra Körmendy, university chaplain. Martin Paul and Nick Bos will be present on behalf of the Executive Board.
