Our Committee
Co-Chairs San
Antonio Mayor Julian Castro, Most Rev. Gustavo Garcia-Siller,
Archbishop, Archdiocese of San Antonio, and Rabbi Aryeh Scheinberg

all civic, religious and business leaders and all San Antonians of all
faiths to join us in marking a moment of unity and patriotism and

service on Sunday, Sept. 11 at 7:30 a.m. to 9:00 a.m. at the Alamo Plaza.
"We Will Always Remember",
is being hosted by the U.S. Army and planned with
the the Greater San Antonio Chamber of Commerce and our 9/11
Keeping Faith, Keeping Freedom Committee with the participation of
law enforcement officers, firefighters and First
Responders of 9/11.
San
Antonio Representatives to the U.S. Congress and Texas Legislators,
Senators and Representatives are being invited.
Our
committee would like to encourage religious institutions to hold
special services during these days in memory of the victims. We have
prepared a couple of suggested Interfaith/Ecumenical services for
use by all who wish to hold such individual services. These suggested services may be amended to better reflect the individual faith tradition or liturgical expression.
Suggested Interfaith/Ecumenical Service includes responsive
readings and the reading aloud of names of victims of 9/11. Our
committe has prepared lists of victims of 9/11 for
those institutions who would like to read names of victims at
their
services. To order a list of victims of 9/11 please send an email to: info@911keepingfaithkeepingfreedom.org
Additional suggested Service
Places of worship are encouraged to ring bells and chimes on Sunday, September 11 at 9:15 am and at 5:00 p.m.
The names of institutions holding a memorial service
will be posted in our web site together with the date and time of
services.
