Letters for Peace

The Letters for Peace, Justice and Action has the goal to write 10,000 letters for peace between July 11, 2025 and July 11, 2026. This contemplative social action explores how we build peace in our lives. These sessions are for people who are seeking non-violent action to address violence.

What forms of violence, force, war and attacks on vulnerable people are you hearing about, witnessing or experiencing? How does it make you feel? Does connecting to our innate capacity for peace create more peace in the world? We invite you to join a letter writing session where together we move from fear to contemplative social action.

Peace begins with self-reflection. Come share your personal journey to peace and action in letters to friends, organizations, churches, family members, council people, representatives, or even to yourself. You can choose to write anonymously.

A tool kit containing templates, prompts and other resources will be provided to support your efforts and assist you in hosting your own letter writing session if you are so inspired.
