CommUNITY Events Celebrating 40 Years of Our Work Cultivating Peace, Justice and Unity in Greater Baton Rouge

Help us to celebrate our 40th anniversary ! There are a variety of events planned during our anniversary week from September 13th through September 19th all across town, from a moveable pray-for-peace vigil to our annual community prayer breakfast to a food distribution event in Zion City. There is something for everyone! We hope to see you at one or all of these events. See our Events page for more details.

Moveable Pray-for-Peace Prayer Vigil Across Baton Rouge

Visit one or several of the designated prayer sites on Sunday, September 13th from 2 pm-4 pm to join our collective voices in praying for peace. See the flyer or Events page for more details regarding prayer sites.

40th Anniversary CommUNITY Prayer Breakfast

Join us on Thursday, September 17th at 7 am (doors open 630 am) for our anniversary prayer breakfast at Boudreaux’s. This year’s event is sure to be special as we recognize our founders and past leaders, welcome our new Executive Director, and joyfully look forward to work that remains to be done. Tickets are $30 each and are available online or at our office. Get your tickets early as this popular event sells out every year !

Zion City Community Food Distribution

Join us on Saturday, September 19th as we distribute boxes of pantry staples and household items to Zion City neighborhood residents. We will need volunteers to help us to pack and load boxes for this event, including high school or college students needing service hours.
