Peace in Production September 2016

​Dear Heartists:
Peace Production is thrilled to be a part of so many wonderful events with Heartists all over Southern Oregon who are educating humanity and inspiring a health full intention!  
Here’s the Peace we are Producing ~
Stories We Tell & Songs We Sing benefit event for Grandmother Agnes Baker-Pilgrim this Sunday in Grants Pass sponsored by the Grants Pass Center for Spiritual Living.

​Your presence, standing with our Indigenous People such as are gathered in Standing Rock, North Dakota, will honor
Grandma Aggie. We have a 5 hour event planned . . .
Yes, a full afternoon! Community Building is worth the time!
We STAND united! Bring your heart in Unity!

• Listen to the story of the founding of the Iroquois Confederacy, the governing structure that the U.S. Founding Fathers chose as a model for the Constitution of the United States of America. In these moments when war and despair are felt and seen - we go to the heart of the root of our country to hear how 5 Native Nations came together to live in Peace, the model for life within our culture. Marcine Quenzer, author, artist, medicine woman, and friend brings Spirit Winds of Peace ~ Epoch of the Peace Makers - a story we all need hear with our hearts.
• Grandma Aggie will share her Wisdom, bless us with her presence, and a book signing. Buy her books whether in person or at Aquarius Books and Gifts - she speaks for those without a voice - the Voice for the Voiceless with ageless wisdom. 
• DINNER!!! A delicious meal will be prepared and served on real plates. Omnivores and Vegetarians will be delighted with the food choices and tastes! 
• Closing the event will be Cecilia St. King ~ Inner Peace Troubadour in concert! We are so blessed to have this International Star who is endorsed by the United Nations and the M.K. Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence, in partnership with the National Peace Academy, AND recommended by Pete Seeger! Pete said everyone should hear Cecilia's original and heart moving music.
• Get your TICKETS or if you can't attend  DONATE anyway. :)

Healthy Food Festival was a raving success! Even now, I'm still decompressing from last Saturday and loving the inspiration pouring through for next year. We are still offering a contest Youth Recipe/Art Contest. Entries due October 1, 2016.
 
It will sure take a bigger team to produce next year...
 
Who's in for the 3rd Annual Healthy Food Festival?
 
ASHLAND CULTURE OF PEACE (ACPC) activities we've been involved in:

• 11 Days for Peace began on 9/11 celebrating what is rising, recognizing what is falling, letting go, moving on, building new, and reflecting again.  Click here to read the article Mayana wrote that was published in the Ashland Tidings on Sept. 12th.
• ACPC ONE YEAR ANNIVERSARY Celebration on International Day of Peace is Wednesday, the 21st. Full details available at the link. 
• Marcine Quenzer (one of my mentors in ceremony) came to tell the story of Spirit Winds of Peace, Epoch of the Peace Makers at the Ashland Public Library. She also led a ceremony in Lithia Park on the eve of 9/11.
• Youth Essay, Poetry, and Poster contest: The Education Committee offered a contest through Ashland Public Schools and to all K-12 students in Ashland. Several prompts were given in each of the three age levels. I've seen some of the posters and they are so precious, speaking loudly the dreams and visions our children have for peace.
• Student Field Trips:  On Wednesday, students will tour through a variety of centers and experience peace. 
• Cecilia St King, Inner Peace Troubadour and Matthew Fox are joining ACPC on the 21st for a free public event - with fundraising components to entice and excite you! We'll be there with a film created by Peace Production's team, including us, Spencer Barrett and McKenna Rutherford. 
• Marcine Quenzer will be there on Wednesday with her art display and book.

So come play! Bring your open heart and together we create a world that works for everyone.
Watch for details on what’s coming next:  Imagine This Dream October 8 – December 9, 2016
