Peace
Day 2007
MARYLAND
Join
the worldwide movement to create a Global Ceasefire and Day of Peace
& Nonviolence in our homes, our communities and between nations
on September 21, The International Day of Peace. Peace Day has been
a focal point for community-uniting and peace-inspiring events since
its inception in 1981.
This year will be the greatest Peace Day, yet. Together we can create
a more peaceful, just and sustainable world, one heart, one family,
one community at a time. Join the Countdown To Peace and help inspire
your community to celebrate humanity's first day of peace, ever.
