United for Peace presentation to the Brookfield UCW.
(see pictures below)


This group of very active UCW members gathered for their January meeting, the program's purpose was to explore the 'United for Peace' campaign and get involved. They discussed ways to LEARN - get speakers / follow media stories / etc. ACT - they discussed possible actions to extablish a Department of Peace with the Canadian Government. GIVE - they will plan an event and use the 'United For Peace' materials - envelopes and handouts, etc.


They placed an order for the cookie cutter (15) at $1.00 each. This will result in lots of fun times as they serve peace dove cookies to each other at meetings and to their many guests. When an idea is placed in the midst of these ladies it always translates into something very GOOD!!!
They conducted a wonderful worship and shared the scripture of the 'Peaceful Kingdom'. The Story "Of War and Roses" by Carol McAdoo Rehme came from the book "Chicken Soup for the Gardener's Soul" Page 263. Great story and tells of one man's efforts to create a rose - you must read it to appreciate its full impact.
Praying for peace and thanking God for the peace in our own lives is something we all can do.
