International Day of Peace, also known as Peace Day, is commemorated every year on September 21. It is a United Nations holiday for the end of war and violence, and the promotion of world peace.
It is also a day dedicated to those who promote peace in conflict zones by providing humanitarian aid. On the International Day of Peace, UN countries declare a ceasefire for the day, personally and politically.
We lift our hearts to you, O Christ. Make us instruments of your peace. Merciful, loving and all powerful God we come into your presence with hearts of thanksgiving and praise as we unite for world justice and peace. Amen
