In one month we will observe the third anniversary of the Iraq War.
  Perhaps the churches in each community across America could get together in an ecumenical effort to honor our fallen and to commemorate our losses.  They could hold interfaith services on that day.  For every American life lost in Iraq, a church member could stand, dressed in black as a sign of mourning.  If there are more people available, they could represent symbolically all the other lives over there.
