Veterans Day Ceremony
2 Andrews Rd
Lewiston, ME 04240
All are invited to a centering moment led by The Multifaith Chaplaincy this Veterans Day, November 11th, at 9 a.m. in Bates Veterans Plaza.
Together we will hear reflective readings and interfaith prayers, observe silence, and share in the ritual of laying stones of remembrance on the memorial.
Additionally, a basket of stones will be left at the foot of the memorial from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. if you would like to have a quiet private moment to lay a stone at any point in the day.
Everyone, of any spiritual tradition or secular tradition, veterans, friends and family of veterans, alumni, and all are welcome to participate in this event.
