The Olympia Fellowship of Reconciliation invites the public to participate in our 33rd Annual Holiday Peace Vigil on Saturday December 20 from 12:00 noon to 1:00 p.m. along both sides of West Fourth Avenue – along the south side of Percival Landing and also in front of Heritage Fountain.

The annual vigil is a valued Olympia tradition. The Olympia FOR provides many signs and also invites participants to bring their own. Please bring children and friends! Participants may enjoy free refreshments nearby after the vigil.

The vigil gives participants and passersby an opportunity to pause and consider choosing peace instead of violence. Peace is so much more consistent with the holiday spirit.

The Olympia FOR also has also sponsored a weekly peace vigil in Sylvester Park at the corner of Legion and Capitol Way, from 12 noon to 1 p.m. every Wednesday since March 5, 1980, and another vigil at the south end of Percival Landing from 4:30 to 6:00 p.m. every Friday since November 1998.
