This is the 23rd annual observance of the International Day of Peace, a UN resolution first inaugurated on the third Tuesday of September 1982. Beginning on the 20th anniversary in 2002, the UN General Assembly set September 21st as the permanent date for the International Day of Peace. The UN Resolution calls for a global ceasefire and a minute of silence for peace at 12 Noon.
As I mentioned a few days ago, I am joining clergy from many faiths in a celebration of the International Day of Peace
at the Center for Spiritual Enlightenment in downtown San Jose. Any local folks are, of course, invited to join the interfaith service! I am feeling very hopeful and inspired.
