    2009 Annual Report Culture of Peace Initiative (CPI) “Uniting the strengths of existing individuals & organizations building Cultures of Peace for future generations” This report is dedicated to UNESCO's International Decade for the Culture of Peace and Non-Violence for the Children of the World (2010-2010) and the UN Millennium Development Goals. Pathways To Peace, International Secretariat, Culture of Peace Initiative (CPI) Peacebuilding locally and globally for nearly three decades 1 December 2009 Dear Peacebuilding Colleagues, Thank you for your continued participation in the Culture of Peace Initiative (CPI) and it’s annual highlight, the International Day of Peace on September 21. Since 1983, at the request of the Office of the Secretary General of the United Nations, Pathways To Peace (PTP) has submitted an Annual Report to the UN, summarizing Peace Day activities of organizations worldwide. 2009 has been bigger than ever! Due to Pathways To Peace, the International Day of Peace was printed on hundreds of millions of calendars – potentially reaching one billion people. Along with the efforts of Peacebuilders around the world, we are on the move to making this observance become a more universal and mainstream event. This report is organized by geographic location and includes online submissions of 700+ events published on our Global Peace Events calendar on www.internationaldayofpeace.org & www.cultureofpeace.org. However, there were thousands of Peace Day events which took place, including: colorful parades & silent marches, city-wide festivals & small ceremonies, public concerts & sing-a-longs, discussions on human rights & the environment, events for the youth & families, church vigils & meditation or yoga, intercultural & interfaith gatherings, soccer matches, exhibits & collaborative art projects.

    Culture of Peace Initiative a Un-Designated Peace Messenger Initiative

    Annual Report 2007 CULTURE OF PEACE INITIATIVE A UN-DESIGNATED PEACE MESSENGER INITIATIVE Culture of Peace Initiative (CPI) has a new website: www.cultureofpeaceinitiative.org CULTURE OF PEACE INITIATIVE (CPI) January 2008 Dear Peacebuilding Colleagues, THANK YOU for your continued participation in the Culture of Peace Initiative (CPI) and its annual highlight International Day of Peace on September 21. Since 1983, at the request of the Office of the Secretary-General of the United Nations, Pathways To Peace (PTP) has submitted an Annual Report to the UN, summarizing the Peace Day activities of Participating Organizations worldwide. In this year‟s report, you will find many examples of diverse and creative ways in which people express Peace. Please see pages 16-70 for Peace Day activities by organizations, groups and individuals worldwide. One of the objectives of CPI is to build co-operation between Peacebuilders along diverse paths throughout the world. In 2007, an important step was taken in that direction: CPI launched its Community Hub on WiserEarth. Through the advanced technology of WiserEarth, CPI Participants can now post information about their Peace Day events and other activities online. In 2008, CPI will continue to develop its web presence on WiserEarth with an even more sophisticated Community Group, where Participants can share resources and communicate with each other. Read more about the CPI Community Hub on page 76. Another important development in 2007 was 30 Days of Peace, a collaboration project between CPI and Earthdance International that extended Peace Day celebrations from September 11 to October 10. One unique piece that this project brings to large scale global events is a greater level of quantification of participation and activity for the purposes of studying the effect on society and the environment.

Christians be- gan to celebrate it as a season during the fourth and fifth centuries. While Christmas is a celebration of the coming of the Christ child, what God has already done, Advent is a season of waiting, even longing, in expectation of the full coming of God’s reign on earth and for the return of Christ. Advent is as much about looking ahead, to what God will yet do, as it is about remembering.

  • Sacred Space: a Resource for Small-Group Ministry

    Sacred Space: a Resource for Small-Group Ministry

    Sacred Space: A Resource for Small-group Ministry Enduring Principles Series Facilitator Notes Sacred Space: A Small-group Resource—Enduring Principle Series is primarily for people who come together in an informal Community of Christ setting to share a conversation and build relationships. The outline is meant to serve as a guide as people enter conversation, share their stories, ask questions, and express joys and concerns. Small-group ministry also introduces Community of Christ to people and invites all who seek to follow Christ to be shaped and formed in his image. Readings or scriptures are provided for specific elements of the gathering: Prayer for Peace, Sharing Around the Table, and Generosity Statement. These readings appear in the body of each outline. They also appear separately so an individual reading or scripture can be shared easily with persons responsible for a particular part of the gathering. For example, as people gather, invite someone to share the Prayer for Peace. Hand the person a hard copy for that specific portion of the gathering. Part of the facilitator’s role in an informal setting is to cue participants as the gathering unfolds. Only the facilitator will need the complete outline. The handout section for each gathering outline also includes optional additions for Communion and Thoughts for Children, which can be integrated into the gathering as needed. Each session begins with a Prayer for Peace and closes with a Generosity Statement, an invitation, a hymn, and a prayer. The main portion of each session is Sharing Around the Table, where we eat, study a scripture, and share.

Seton Hall University Dissertations and Theses (ETDs). 1905. https://scholarship.shu.edu/dissertations/1905 Victory, Reconciliation, and Reunion: The Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument of Easton, Pennsylvania and a Memory of the Civil War Bryan M. Toth Submitted to the Department of History of Seton Hall University as a requirement for the Master of Arts in History Nathaniel Knight, Ph.D. Department Chair Dermot Quinn, D.Phil. Director of Graduate Studies Larry A. Greene, Ph.D. Faculty Advisor Seton Hall University September 13, 2013 Abstract Thirty-five years after the Civil War came to an end the people of Easton, Pennsylvania erected a monument to honor the men of Easton and Northampton County that fought and died in the sectional conflict. With the nation recognizing the sesquicentennial of the Civil War the study of how the people of Easton have chosen to remember this conflict can help us better understand the war itself and its ever changing place in the collective national psychology. The Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Monument that was built in Easton’s Centre Square is reflective of a Northern monument design, and a memory of the Civil War, that was dominant throughout the North in the late nineteenth century.
