The purpose of our Prayer Vigils for Homicide Victims is to bring people together to honor the lives of the victims, comfort the family, friends and neighbors; to pray for peace and healing in the neighborhood and throughout all Durham; to allow those affected the opportunity to have their voices heard and their grief acknowledged; and to publicly protest to the community that such violence is unacceptable and requires all those who want to promote justice and mercy to take action. The Vigils are coordinated by the Religious Coalition for a Nonviolent Durham, Parents of Murdered Children and Durham Congregations In Action.
