“1La Salle, our pilgrimage towards peace” is the theme of the International Lasallian Days for Peace that this year will take place from September 21 to October 21.
The initiative, led by the Commission on Youth of the Institute of the Brothers of the Christian Schools, is based on the awareness that 2024 “has been a difficult year for peace in the world”, as perceived in the war situations in Ukraine, as well as between Israel and Palestine, and in several regions of Africa afflicted by civil wars.
“More than ever, as Lasallians, we need to be united as a charismatic family and do something about this terrible situation: pray, donate, be part of civil organizations and volunteer programs,” reads the letter of convocation from the Commission on Youth, which also states that “our International Lasallian Days for Peace aim to be the opportunity to be active in these efforts.”
To this end, on this occasion the intention is to share solidarity and volunteer projects that are happening worldwide and that may inspire Lasallians in the creation or consolidation of local programs at the service of those most in need.
Likewise, the Commission will provide didactic materials on the topic and announces that they will later send the detailed program for those Days.
