International Day of Peace - Global Gathering

Join World Church on 21 September 2025 for the International Day of Peace. The 12-hour Zoom space features live prayer, music, reflection, and peaceful imagery. Ministers will share thoughts and prayers at the start of each hour. You are welcome to come and go freely, connecting globally in this gentle, come-as-you-are experience that includes quiet moments with inspiring quotes, peaceful imagery, and soft music for contemplation and rest. Special highlights are scheduled throughout the day. Whether you join for five minutes or five hours, this space invites you to breathe deeply, pray for peace, and feel connected to shared hope for a peaceful world.

Established by the United Nations in 1981, the International Day of Peace is devoted to strengthening ideals of peace. In recognition of this day, we invite you to pause, reflect, and connect with a global community committed to peace. No registration is required, and most elements will be available in English, Spanish, and French.


YouTube and Zoom links will be added soon. Times have been converted to Australian Eastern Standard Time.
