The second session of this year's Pigtown Peace Pavilion wound up today. Reports say that both sessions this fall were a great success. Thanks to the University of Maryland School of Nursing for working with folks from The Power House and the Chesapeake Bay Mission Center to help the kids from School 34 B'more Peaceful!

Just a quick reminder of our planning meeting. It's Wednesday, July 20 at 7:00 p.m. We'll meet at The Power House. I hope to see you there.

The last group visiting the Peace Pavilion for the school year just left the building. Our pilot year is now finished. We'll be doing assessment, evaluation, and planning during over the summer to make next year even better.

Thank you to everyone who served on staff, provided supplies, held us in prayer, gave financially, or participated in any way this year. You are truly helping our city B'more peaceful by teaching kids the ways of peace.

We're set up and ready for "Peace for the Planet." Some of the groups had to postpone or cancel due to schools closing early because of extreme heat. They'll be coming soon. Pix of the stations are below.

With church members, nursing students, and parent volunteers from the school, the Pigtown Peace Pavilion was staffed this week by practicing Christians, Jews, and Muslims. We couldn't have planned it any better if we'd tried.

A special thanks to the students and staff from the University of Maryland School of Nursing who helped run the peace pavilion today!

We were glad to welcome the fifth graders from School 34 today for "Peace for Us." We're looking forward to the classes scheduled for the rest of the week.

We were able to coordinate with the schools today to get the groups who were snowed out last week rescheduled for their "Peace for Us" experience. Stay tuned for further updates as we progress.

Well, with the snow all three days of "Peace for Me" have been postponed. We're in the process of rescheduling with the school.

I realized today that I hadn't posted pix of the setup for "Peace for Us." Below are several for you to see how we have things set up.

Well, the weather just doesn't seem to like having kids come to the Peace Pavilion. We were scheduled to have kids there this afternoon but we woke up to a snow day. We're looking at more snow overnight so there's a good chance we won't have the groups schedueled for tomorow, either. We'll see.

1/12/2011

Today we scheduled the dates for the kids from school 34 to take part in Peace for Us. They'll be coming later this month. Now it's time to pack up "Peace for Me" and set up the new materials.
