The public is invited to attend an interfaith prayer gathering for peace, in solidarity with the Pittsburgh-area Ukrainian community at St. Paul Cathedral on Sunday, March 6, at 2:30 p.m.
The sponsoring organizations include Catholic, Orthodox and Protestant churches, as well as those with Hindu, Jewish, Muslim, and other interfaith roots.
The prayers will be unusual for an Interfaith service, which usually draw on shared traditions. Acknowledging the crisis in Ukraine, it will follow segments of a traditional Ukrainian service, but punctuated with psalms, prayerful petitions, and other elements of a contemporary interfaith service suitable for participation by westerners or non-Christians.
