On St. Brigid’s Day, people are encouraged to take 5 minutes to ‘pause for peace’. St. Brigid of Kildare and the abbesses who succeeded her were renowned as peacemakers in early Ireland. By taking a moment to pause for peace on St. Brigid’s day we hope to send out a message that we actively oppose warfare and the proliferation of arms. “Peace is a journey of a thousand miles, but it must be taken one step at a time.” L.B.Johnson

We invite you to join with us in a Pause for Peace wherever you are.

 

Time:  12.00 Mid-day

Holocaust Memorial Day Trust (HMDT) encourages remembrance in a world scarred by genocide. We promote and support Holocaust Memorial Day (HMD) – the international day on 27 January to remember the six million Jews murdered during the Holocaust, alongside the millions of other people killed under Nazi persecution of other groups and during more recent genocides in Cambodia, Bosnia, Darfur and Rwanda.

27 January marks the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp.

Please note the doors will only open at 7PM sharp. We would advise not to come any earlier.
