As part of Delaware Peace Week, we will join hundreds of others across our state to focus on what we can do to be a force for peace. Drawing upon some of the practical insights from Valarie Kaur, a renowned Sikh activist, filmmaker, and civil rights lawyer—we will seek how to be a force of peace that extends in three directions: to others, to our opponents, and ourselves. Children are invited to the first part of the service, including a story for all ages.
