Field notes
The vigil follows a fixed seven-part order, moving from naming the person and five minutes of silence to scripture, a yearly execution litany, homily, prayers, and a closing benediction. The page’s calendar identifies scheduled people, states, and execution dates, while stating that dates update automatically from the Death Penalty Information Center. A September 15, 2026 homily, “When the Stones Hit the Ground,” is attributed to Dr. Jeff Hood.
