Casting religious differences aside, members from four Medfield churches united – calling for peace and racial equality during a candlelight procession downtown.

On Sunday, nearly 100 people sang, walked and prayed in the streets. Most in attendance were members of the First Parish Unitarian Universalist Church, United Church of Christ, First Baptist Church or the Episcopal Church of the Advent.

The procession began on the steps of the Unitarian Universalist Church on North Street with a speech from Rev. Meg Soens, who organized the event.

Soens said the protest was not to incite anger, but to promote peace and give a voice to concerned residents.
