Great Salt Lake Vigil – January 2024

Utah State Capitol

Come “let your light shine” (Matthew 5:16) for Great Salt Lake during the 2024 Utah State Legislative Session! On Tuesday, January 23rd from 5 to 6 PM, LDSES will be keepers of the Great Salt Lake Vigil at the Capitol 2024, to celebrate and amplify awareness of our love for the Great Salt Lake. We will meet on the east steps of the Utah State Capitol at 5:00 PM and carry brine shrimp puppets (see pictured above), flocks of birds, and other lake species around the Capitol, walking clockwise until 6:00 PM. For those of you who have an LDSES bandana, be sure to wear it.   This event is appropriate for adults and children.  We encourage adults to bring kids and grandkids. We need many hearts and hands!  Sign up here if you can support our group on January 23. Other groups will be hosting vigils daily throughout the legislative session, which ends on March 1st.  If you are unable to participate in our January 23 vigil, we encourage you to support other 1-hour vigils that will be happening every morning and evening during January and February.  Also, LDSES will be keepers of the February 14 vigil so watch your email for more on that as well. We will be glad to be with you on the steps!
