We hope our Friends in or near New Jersey can join us for our annual Peace Pilgrim Celebration in her home town of Egg Harbor City on her birthday, July 18, 2026. Highlights will be our One-Mile Silent Mindful Walk, creation of a Flower Peace Mandala, gathering under the Pine Grove to celebrate Peace Pilgrim through music, words, and meditation, a BYO picnic lunch, and more. We’ll be providing more details soon.
