Dear Eritrean brothers and sisters, The Eritrean community in Washington DC is planning to hold a candlelight vigil to remember Eritrean, Ethiopian and other victims of the latest boat accidents in the Mediterranean Sea and those who were murdered by Libyan terrorists. The vigil will take place on Sunday, May 3rd, 2015 at Thomas Jefferson Memorial park. The program will start at 6pm. This is not the time for people of good conscience to remain indifferent but a trying time that’s calling us to show our humanity. Please join us to mourn the lives of hundreds of young men, women and children we have just lost. Please mark your calendar and try to put this event at the top of your priorities for that day. We would also appreciate if you can spread the word as much as you can.
