[OBIPP]This morning I attended a training on nonviolent civil disobedience and got to know a few dozen of the hundreds of other people here for today's Interfaith Peace Witness. It looks like there is a group of about 50 or more who are planning to get arrested this afternoon.

Tomorrow begins two days of events related to the Interfaith Peace Witness in Washington, DC, organized by the new national coalition of religious groups working to end the war in Iraq. I will be heading to DC to meet with dozens of faith community leaders tomorrow evening (facilitated by the Fellowship of Reconciliation), and will then participate with hundreds of others in a major religious gathering on Friday afternoon at 2:30 p.m., to be held outdoors in Upper Senate Park.
