WEL, World Elder Land is inviting all elders, their caregivers and community members where elders live, around the world, to observe a Reflection For Peace Vigil.

Our intention is to encourrage active participation, words of wisdom and the magnificent presence of our elders in the promotion of PEACE and better ways to live TOGETHER...

Dear elders of the world... Join us for a week of non-violence and LOVE. Write, talk, paint, compose music or poems, pray, reflect, dance or walk for peace, happiness and a better quality of life. Only by performing
acts of kindness, loving and helping each other
can harmony and peace exist in our lives.


Helping each other, working and creating a better world for everyone! Peace begins with one spark in our hearts. It all begins with YOU and I.

Send us photos and reports of the many creative, meaningful and inclusive ways and activities for peace, a vigil for peace, poems and reflections for peace, family or community gatherings, as they are observed across the globe.

Reflection For Peace
by Kathy J. Ward

May the divine LOVE
nurture and help me become an INSTRUMENT OF PEACE.
May there be PEACE on earth.

I am giving peace a chance,
this means
JUSTICE, LOVE, KINDNESS
in my thoughts, in my writings,
in my heart, in my words,
in my actions, in my hands,
in my eyes, in my soul.

For the war is not only around me
but perhaps trapped...
in my thoughts, my writings,
my heart, my words, my actions,
my hands, my eyes, my soul...

So I begin today, for tomorrow will be much too late,
day-by-day progress is made
waves of love are attained:
for those who lose dreaming are lost,
for what I am is only part of what I create.
I am a child of this universe,
a peacemaker,
a JOY to the world.

Sing a song for PEACE tonight
sing with me, YOU and I
holding hands, letting the sound travel
and the fragrance of love inspire
new beginnings, turning times and tides...

Together... always together.

PEACE begins with one spark,
it all begins with YOU and I.

PEACE be with you!
