LDS Church in Washington, D.C., Joins Unity Walk to Remember 9/11

In a remarkable show of unity, every house of worship along Washington's Embassy Row opened their doors to commemorate the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks and welcomed people of all faiths to celebrate their commonalities rather than their differences. Among them were Muslims, Jews, Sikhs, Hindus and Christians, including The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Anne Golightly, who serves as an LDS public affairs director for the Washington metropolitan area, stood with an Episcopal bishop, a Jewish rabbi and a Buddhist chaplain to share a message of faith with the hundreds of people gathered at the Islamic Center of Washington, D.C.
