us. Together we want to pray to God, our heavenly
father, for peace and unity, in ourselves, in our

world. Join in and pray with us on October 18th

Gods help this year we will be more. Some years
ago Pater Pio once said If one million children

one million children praying together for unity
and peace Dear Mr./Mrs., We would like to inform
you about an event that will take place on the 18
October at 900 o'clock. One million children
praying together for unity and peace is the dream
we yearn to accomplish. The Central Venezuelan
Committee with the help of private and state
schools, and also universities, organizes and
coordinates this event with great enthusiasm. We
wish to invite you and especially the children
which study at your school to take part in the
prayer on October 18th at 900 o'clock. It is a
prayer for the unity and peace in our families,
our nations and in the whole world. This event
has already taken place the previous years.
Thousands of children from all over the world
have gathered together for praying. Starting from
Venezuela this project has reached many different
corners of the earth such as Argentina,
Paraguay, Puerto Rico, Germany, Russia and Kenya.
We would be very obliged to you if you join us
in the realizing of this prayer. Your
participation in this project is very important.
Only through the collaboration and enthusiasm of
many people can this dream be accomplished. If
you agree to take part in this project there is
no need to organize a special meeting or spend
any money. All you have to do is gather together
on October 18th and pray. Sincerely
yours, Mario Gonzales Casado President
Consejo Nacional de Laicos Venezuela
