On October 21 and 22, 2017, the Baha’i community globally celebrated the “Twin Holy Days” associated with the birthdays of their religion’s two founders. The URI Europe team congratulated the Baha’i community on this occasion and expressed its appreciation for the community’s dedicated and long-term involvement in interfaith peace work and for promoting unity in diversity, respect and peaceful relationships.
As a sign of friendship and appreciation, the team presented to the Baha’i community symbols of unity in diversity: a container with earth from various European countries, a flask with “Waters of the World,” and a framed poster of the Golden Rule. The “Waters of the World” include mingled waters that have been gathered from all seven seas and all seven continents, and which have been blessed at several global peace events.
