December 18 Candlelight Vigil

December 18th Candlelight Vigil

December 18th: Southern Arizona humanitarian, religious and Native American leaders will host a candlelight vigil from 4 – 7 PM on Dec. 18 at Evergreen Cemetery (3015 N Oracle Rd), where the remains of hundreds of migrants discovered in the Sonoran Desert in Southern Arizona have been buried after attempts to identify many of them were exhausted. Please join members of local medical, immigrant justice, and religious communities at this important event. The Pima County Medical Examiner Dr. Gregory Hess and leaders with Tucson Samaritans, the Colibrí Center for Human Rights, No More Deaths, Humane Borders, Derechos Humanos, Tucson-area churches, synagogues and mosques, and the Tohono O’odham Nation and Pascua Yaqui Tribe will offer remembrances and prayers during the vigil. All are welcome in the spirit of peace and memory. Use the entrance to Evergreen Cemetery at the intersection of North Oracle Road and West Ft. Lowell Road. Drive straight west to a gravel parking lot.)
