International Day of Nonviolence

On 2 October, Community of Christ and the United Nations will observe the International Day of Nonviolence. The day was established 15 June, 2007, chosen because it was the birthday of Mahatma Gandhi, leader of the Indian independence movement and pioneer of the philosophy and strategy of nonviolence.

Community of Christ members are urged to join Daily Prayer for Peace.
