Are any groups going from Camden Churches? I am proposing to meet up with Westminster Justice and Peace at 10.15am on the raised area in front of Westminster Central Hall and Queen Elizabeth Conference Centre. I know people from Highgate and Belsize Park will be going under various banners. All sorts of groups will be there like Friends of the Earth, the RSPB and the Woodland Trust as well as Christian agencies and other faith communities.
Whether or not you can attend, please prayer for a peaceful day and a good outcome of the Copenhagen talks.
