Vigils

Every week for the past 5 1/2 years I have been participating in a sidewalk vigil in downtown Salt Lake.  We have signs, flags and sometimes do special things for certain events.  We have a fluctuation of participants each week – we’ve had 50 and we’ve had one.  We vigil in all weather every week.

We mostly get positive responses but we do get a percentage of the typical, unintelligent “Get a job!”, “Get a life!”, “We love Bush” stuff.  Sometimes we get things thrown at us.  It’s also amazing how angry some people get at us just over the sign we are holding.

Here is a photo of a vigil participant from last week:
