Bring Friends and family and join us for this community organized Prayers Not Pipelines event on Sunday, October 25th, 10-3PM at the Rockfish Valley Foundation/ Spruce Creek Gallery.

Imagine a “wall” of white gauzy fabric wrapped around the trees so that you can see through to the trees but blocked enough to imagine their loss. This wall will be on both sides of RT 151 and will be the length of the path of the proposed pipeline route, 125 feet. In front of that white wall, we will stand hand in hand with our no pipeline shirts. We will line both sides of Rt 151.  As we filter in and out to take turns, we will pass out info and hand out flyers to residents and visitors. While the community is waiting their turn to be a part of the human chain along Rt 151, participants can create their own prayer flag. There will be white squares of cloth available with markers and people can make their own statement, intention, artwork or prayer. The flags will be collected and sewed together on a line to create a giant prayer flag that will be posted along the road where the proposed pipeline would go. The goal of the event is to send out positive messages to the community and the forest: blessings, protection and prayers going out to the world that this is a protected and sacred place.
