March For Our Lives Coming To Westminster

July 25, 2018 by Ken Henry

Last Friday, I was contacted by Rev. Gay Lee Einstein  (Presbyterian Pastor) to see if Westminster Presbyterian Church would be willing to host the high school students from Parkland, Florida as they tour the country registering young people to vote and sharing their first-hand experiences of gun violence.  Yes, this is the same group of students who spoke at the rally in Washington DC on March 24th of this year. And so, I am happy to announce that the Session of Westminster Presbyterian Church has approved the usage of our Fellowship Hall for this event.

On Friday, August 3rd from 6:00-7:30, The March For Our Lives: Road to Change tour will be having a rally at Westminster Presbyterian Church. This event is open to the public and I’m sure there will be a flurry of media exposure.  What an exciting opportunity for us and Charlottesville.  Please check out the link below for more details.

Let us continue to believe and pray that gun violence is not an unsolvable issue.             Ken
