The dove has been a symbol of #peace for thousands of years in different cultures.
Pablo Picasso made the dove a modern symbol of peace when it was selected as the emblem for the World Peace Congress in 1949.

40 Days of Peace.
But why 40?
☮ There is a spiritual side of 40. Almost every tradition has held the number “40” sacred.
☮ 40 days is transformative; it takes 40 days to form a new habit.

During the 40 Days of Peace, we can strengthen ties to our communities and one another.
There is a value for engaging locally and attending events in Richmond Hill. It is saying that peace does prevail here.

What is Peace?
You can start this 40 Days of Peace by defining what #peace means to you.
There is psychological and societal peace.
And maybe revisit your ideas after 40 days.
