“Sip for Peace” - Meet at the Peace Pole

We will sip tea together and share in a moment of Peace.  International World Peace Day is Sept 21. On Saturday, “Sip for Peace” will be led by a Peace Ambassador. 

International Tea Sippers Society "Sip for Peace" Sponsor Babette Donaldson writes: No one alive has experienced global peace. There is no shared vision or language. Tea has the potential to empower individuals to reclaim a personal sense of peace and inspire a vision of what could be.  We can share a simple practice . . . Sip for Peace.
