In remembrance of those we love who have passed... |
Around September 21 of each year Loretto Maryholme hosts a daffodil planting in a Peace Garden initiated after the tragedy of 9-11
in New York. It is a time to remember friends and family who have died recently, and victims of violence around the world.
The planting is done as part of a ritual that reminds us that as individuals we need to take action to help create peace in the world - not only peace between nations, but peace and non-violence in our homes, communities and schools. If we don't take action,
then governments cannot be expected to follow. If we come together as one, separate from politics and religion,
on a scale that humanity has never known, we will change the world forever.
