Circle of Protection

On Sunday afternoon December 16, 2018, rain or shine, join the Circle of Protection, an interfaith prayer vigil, co-produced by Friends of Buckingham County, Virginia and Water is Life. Protect It, to protect Buckingham County (and all of us!) from the proposed Atlantic Coast Pipeline and the proposed Union Hill ACP Compressor Station. Expect neighbors, story, poetry and song. Expect fun.
The 1:30-3:30 vigil will be open air (inside if rain) on the grounds of Union Grove Baptist Church, 2522 Shelton Store Rd,, Buckingham, VA 23921. Indoor pot luck and speaker following in the church basement. The Circle of Protection is a collaboration of Friends of Buckingham, Union Hill/Grove Baptist Church, Yogaville, VSEC and Water is life. Protect it.
Print out directions for the event before setting forth as reception can be vague to nonexistent in certain parts of the county.
