*NYC CLIMATE JUSTICE EVENTS*

*Thursday September 24th*
*4:30pm and 6:00pm*

Join 350NYC, 350 Brooklyn and thousands of others concerned about climate
justice at three important, back-to-back events on September 24, the eve of
Pope Francis's address to the UN General Assembly.

*Light the Way <https://www.facebook.com/events/1904101856482422/>* - A
multi-faith prayer service to show support for the Pope’s call to heed both
“the cry of the Earth and the cry of the poor,” featuring song, prayer,
ritual, and participants from many spiritual traditions. *4:30-5:30 pm at
Dag Hammarskjöld Plaza; Facebook link here
<https://www.facebook.com/events/1904101856482422/>*.

*Under One Sky <https://www.facebook.com/events/1721702361398249/>* – a
civil society rally to increase public awareness, garner media attention,
and mobilize here and around the world to push for ambitious plans to fight
poverty, inequality, and climate change.
*6:00-7:45 pm, also at Dag Hammarskjöld Plaza; Facebook link here
<https://www.facebook.com/events/1721702361398249/>*.

These two events will be followed by an *all-night multi-faith prayer vigil
<http://www.ourvoices.net/newyork-lightstheway>* at the nearby Church of
Our Savior, Park Ave. at 38th Street, beginning at 8:00 pm and culminating
the next morning with a symbolic procession taking a Light to the UN for
the Pope’s address to the General Assembly. *Register here for the vigil
(come for any part, or for all)*.
