carrying the weight

Chris Randa (above left) and Giuseppe Devincenzo (above right) were among those who pushed the Global Pandemics Bereavement Stone during a ceremony Friday. The 2½-ton granite stone was created by the Peace Abbey and the Life Experience School to commemorate those lost to the current pandemic, or previous ones throughout the years. The stone was pulled from the State House to the Hynes Vaccination Site, then to Copley Square where it was blessed by Church of the Convenant Pastor Rob Mark (at right). The stone walk has been carried out globally in Ireland, England, Japan, and Korea.
