ST. JOSEPH COUNTY, Ind. – The University of Notre Dame will light the “Word of Life” mural on the Hesburgh Library in blue and yellow to show solidarity with the people of Ukraine.

The mural will be lit each weekend until the end of the Russian invasion.

“We at Notre Dame stand in solidarity with all peace-loving people worldwide in demanding an end to this invasion of a sovereign nation,” said President Rev. John I. Jenkins, C.S.C. at the beginning of the war. “This unprovoked war is an international abomination and must stop now. Until it does, may God keep safe all of the innocent men, women and children who are currently in harm’s way. The prayers of the Notre Dame family are with them.”
