On Sunday, October 2nd 2011 nearly 400 of us gathered at Grove Park in West Haven for the 2nd Annual IWagePeace Walk. Both the religious and non-religious alike enjoyed a great Water Front Walk to show the world our appreciation and respect for diversity among God's children. While walking, we learned more about each other and we donated all proceeds from the walk to the nonviolent action group The Combatants For Peace.

Our Purpose : Fighting fear and xenophobia through our public commitment to each other. This was and is a preemptive peace action, a public declaration that is vitally important during a time when fear misguides our citizens toward mistrust, hatred, and harm. It is our roll as spiritual leaders to show ourselves publicly, so that others, less sure of themselves, will not lose their way, will not succumb to fear, hatred, and harm, but will be drawn to goodness through our very public and common action together. |
