Vigil of Remembrance

Join Spirituality and Religious Life (SRL), Women, Gender, and Sexuality Resource Center (WGSRC), Counseling and Psychological Services (CaPS), Case Management, and Health Promotion, as we focus our thoughts, minds, and prayers on loss, grief, and the many sources of pain in our lives. We will band together as students, staff, and faculty (the entire RIT community) to remember, process, and lament—doing so with grace, fond memories, and love. You are also encouraged to bring stories, photos, and items that signify or illustrate loss or grief, which will be offered in memory during the vigil ceremony.

At the conclusion of the offerings, we will process in silence, with lighted candles, to the Jan Strine Memorial Labyrinth in Frisina Quad (outside of the Student Development Center and Lyndon Baines Johnson Hall).  There you may extinguish your candle, walk the labyrinth, and or talk with chaplains and/or counselors in CSD-1445.
