Pledge to CIVILIZE IT

As a nation, we are polarized and divided. Now we must come together and seek a way forward. Can we see ourselves as members of one family? Can we seek to encounter and to grow? Can we identify common values? Can we listen to understand? Can we seek the truth together? Can we jointly come up with creative solutions to the problems that face our nation. We Can! Stop by the Center for Religious and Spiritual Life and participate in the I PLEDGE CIVILITY CAMPAIGN. Let it begin with you! Sign the pledge. Prayers for civility and prayers to overcome division are available for various denominations and traditions of faith at the Center. Chaplains are also available.
