This morning I woke up with so much gratitude for the Divine Grace that has held us on this walk, 13 Moon Walk 4 Peace. We are coming into the home stretch now, only 5 more months and 18 cities to go:
-
(Lansing, MI - June 15- 19; Detroit, MI June 22- 25; Cincinnati, OH – July 9 – 12; Pittsburgh, PA –July 23 – 26; Williamsport, PA – August 2 – 5; Newark, NJ - August 12 – 14; Harlem, NY – August 15 -16; Manhattan, NY – August 16 -18; Brooklyn, NY – August 18 – 20; Philadelphia, PA – August 25 – 27; Baltimore, MD – August 31 - September 3; Washington, DC – September 4 -9; Durham, NC – September 20 – 23; Charlotte, NC – September 30 – October 4; Ashville, NC – October 11 – 16; Cherokee, NC – October 18 – 21; Franklin, NC – October 21 – 23; Atlanta, GA – November 11).
We have been in many diverse communities and celebrated community through sacred ceremonies, co-creating sacred spaces we call Peace Zones, sharing around the dinner table, in churches, at community gatherings, planting peace poles, walking together and visiting sacred sites. We have seen the best. We have seen the worse. We have seen the best in the worse and the worse in the best. So we pray, a lot. We pray that God's work in us is so strong that we reflect the love of God everywhere we go. As we constantly do the work to heal ourselves, we know we are creating a healing path for humanity. We lift our voices with humility and we open our hearts to the stories of those we meet with sincere respect and gratitude. I am still awed every morning I wake up to the beauty of Mother Earth. We have much work to do as a human species and I stand in the knowing that we are progressing and one day our humanity will RISE to end poverty and oppression, genocide, prejudice, racism and sexism, disparities of health-care, education and opportunity, pollution, the rape of Mother Earth, the protection of the rights of all human beings and Mother Earth -- ALL LIFE. And so it is... Audri Scott Williams Trail of Dreams CC http://www.13moonwalk4peace.com
