As they’ve done for the past 15 years, on Hiroshima Day, August 6th, the Quakers of Friends Meeting at Cambridge will once again sponsor a community reading of Thomas Merton’s meditation “Original Child Bomb”  at 6:00 at the Quaker Meeting House (5 Longfellow Park, Cambridge).

After the reading there will be a procession to the Charles River for the floating of origami peace cranes and personal messages of peace and hope.

The public is warmly invited to attend.  For more information, contact John Bach johnmbach@yahoo.com or (970) 209-8346.
