September 21st of each year is the
International Day of Peace, designated by the UN in 1982 to support
individuals, communities, and organizations in promoting peace.
This year, IIWP is lovingly inviting communities around the world to hold
an intention toward peace through creating a local peace project, either
on Sept 21st or sometime during the weekend of Sept. 19 - 20th. This
event could be as simple as a group coming together to chant the
IIWP Worldwide Peace Prayer, or
it could be more involved as a IIWP peace workshop or peacemaker meeting.

At Windermere Ranch, we are holding “A Day of Peace”
on Sunday, September 20th to celebrate this focus on
peace. And communities all over the world are celebrating the
International Day of Peace events with their own activities. For the
latest postings of community events, click here
or check out IIWP's Facebook group,
and please feel free to join our Facebook group and post your
experiences as a peacemaker.
If you'd like to join in and organize a local peace event with IIWP, feel
free to contact IIWP at peace@iiwp.org or 323-328-1905.
