It's so simple to participate in this demonstration. All you need to do, after having a lovely day with family and celebrating Motherhood - light a candle at sunset. Some may say a prayer - some may make a promise - some may just sit and focus energy on finding and bringing these girls back home, while expressing support and hope for the Mother's who are so desperately grieving. It is what you make it! Tell all your friends! Light a candle! Love, Mother Erin Teresa.
