About this event

Join us for a powerful and uplifting Community Healing Ceremony, where we come together to support and heal one another.

About this Event

The Community Healing Ceremony is a service of reconciliation for Veterans and non-Veterans led by VA chaplains, community clergy, and Veterans.

The Ceremony invites U.S. citizens to see themselves as sharing responsibility for various harms perpetrated by, or occurring within, the U.S. military.

The Ceremony provides a space to celebrate Veterans' moral sensitivity and moral seriousness, share the truth of their military experience, and initiate them in a process of transformation we call "patient to prophet."Veterans who bear moral pain are not sick people with a disorder, they are responsible moral agents who are morally-laden with an unfair burden that will only be relieved when that burden is more equitably distributed among all who own some portion of responsibility for the use of military force and the harmful consequences of warfare.
