This coming Thursday, September 21, 2017 is the International Day of Peace. Around the globe, peacebuilders will be gathering to further the work of peace. Think about what things you could be doing on this day. Everyday next week I will be posting about things we can do to advance peace in our lives. So look for my posts.
