On Wednesday December 11 th , we held a Women’s Peace Meeting in my home, to
celebrate the end of the year. Five amazing women shared their stories. Sulhiya
described the life of a refugee. Alicia explained about her work helping women and
children with trauma. Audreia described the many difficulties in her life, and how she
had developed the capacity to forgive. Japjit spoke about providing character
education for children in schools. Then Temby described her work with homeless
people. All of this provoked much deep sharing from many of us, and was followed
by a time of reflection, prayers and poems. Two songs were offered, and then we
concluded by enjoying some lovely food, much of it home-made, which gave us time
to chat, and make new friends, talking together late into the evening. Thanks to all
who made it such a special occasion.
