We are proud that our students have sought to make this event happen and we support them in their desire to continue to grow and learn through these challenging times. Prayer is concrete action for the sake of our community. Our words will not return to us empty but will prepare our hearts to do God’s will in our world.” Abby King, Director (JCCHS Campus Ministry)
To allow for social distancing, the prayer vigil is being held at Pat Sullivan Field on the campus of John Carroll and the gates will be open at 7 p.m. Additionally, we encourage all those attending to wear a mask for your protection and the protection of others in attendance.
