Held in One Spirit: An Interfaith Election Day Gathering

  • St. John's Episcopal Church 100 Chapel Street Portsmouth, NH, 03801 (map)

Join faith communities from around the seacoast for an Election Night prayer vigil at the African Burial Grounds in Portsmouth, NH.

Held in One Spirit: An Interfaith Election Day Gathering will offer a healing presence during what can be a stressful evening for people across the political spectrum. Our intent with this gathering is to create space for our broad community to come together in unity, care and support. Local clergy from various houses of worship will offer brief prayers, readings, and songs around the theme of commonality and mutual support. In these moments we hope to remind ourselves of the shared values that bind us together, especially on a day that can feel charged with tension.

Later Event: November 6
