Augustinians Support International Day of Peace: September 21
The Augustinian Commission for Justice and Peace encourages Augustinian schools, parishes, and communities to observe International Day of Peace, September 21, with learning, prayer and other actions to promote peace, and invites all who identify with Augustinian spirituality to do likewise.
The United Nations General Assembly declared in 1981 that each September a “Day of Peace” shall be devoted to commemorating and strengthening the ideals of peace, both within and among all nations and peoples. This Day is now celebrated every September 21.
Augustinians invite you to join us in praying for peace and working for justice.
“Blessed are the peacemakers; they shall be called the sons and daughters of God.”
— Matthew 5:9
International Day of Peace Prayer
