A candlelight vigil and conversation in remembrance of the victims of the Virginia Tech shootings will be held April 18 on the University of Colorado at Boulder campus at 6 p.m. at the Dalton Trumbo Fountain Court on the north side of the University Memorial Center.

"This is meant to provide an opportunity for people to come together in support of the people at Virginia Tech in this difficult time," said Laurel Alexander, co-president of the campus group Religious Campus Organizations, which is organizing the vigil. "We hope people will talk it out, reflect, pray and strengthen our community here at CU-Boulder."

Alexander also is campus pastor of the Lutheran Campus Ministry, Evangelical Lutheran Church in America.

Candles will be provided to those who attend the vigil. For more information contact Alexander at (303) 786-7137.
