Claremont United Church of Christ to host U2charist with music of U2
The Claremont United Church of Christ, a progressive Christian nomination, will host a 60 minute service using the music of rock band U2.
The service will be held at 6:22 p.m. Sept. 26.
The celebration "features the music of the rock band U2 as part of a liturgical service and communion," according to a news release.
"The service emphasizes the eight Millennium Development Goals, established by the United Nations. These goals focus on reducing extreme poverty, fighting AIDS and other epidemics, reducing child mortality rates, and developing global environmental sustainability. Bono, U2's lead singer, is a passionate supporter of the Millennium Development Goals."
The church is at 233 W. Harrison Ave. Everyone is invited regardless of faith.
The event is free but a collection taken during the service will have proceeds go toward "One Great Hour of Sharing, the United Church of Christ's mission to work with international partners to provide sources of clean water and food, education and health care, small business micro-credit, emergency relief and advocacy and resettlement for refugees and displaced persons."
