> Dear marc,
> 
> Please join us along with Rabbi Lynn Gottlieb, Ashira Darwish, Shahd Abusalama, Omid Safi, Reverend Michael Yoshii, Rae Abileah, for a reckoning; a collective refusal; a gathering of those who cannot stay silent while genocide is being livestreamed.
> 
> What is happening in Gaza is not just "a tragedy," it is a crime. Entire communities are being starved, bombed, and erased while the world scrolls past. As people of spirit and conscience, we are called not to look away. This vigil is a line in the sand, a refusal to become numb. It is a sacred space for collective witnessing, where silence is broken by prayer, grief becomes fuel, and presence becomes protest.
> 
> We come because we refuse to normalize atrocity. We come to grieve every stolen Palestinian life, every child starved, every family erased. We come to grieve the collapse of our shared humanity and to reignite what remains.
> 
> This is a call to stay awake in the face of unbearable violence and to remember that authentic spiritual life can never be separate from moral clarity.
