Newberg peace trail work day scheduled Saturday
Join us at North Valley Friends Church this Saturday, Sept. 25, to help build and establish the Newberg peace trail. Visit the project website to learn of the vision and plan. It is “a place for peace, to learn about peace, to celebrate peace” put together by North Valley Friends and the surrounding Newberg community, including the university’s Center for Peace and Justice.
If interested, please send us an e-mail R.S.V.P. at peaceandjustice@georgefox.edu. We’ll meet at 9 a.m. outside in the Stevens Center parking lot to carpool. If you have a car, please bring it. You will be working on putting the language and quote boards on the peace poles, preparing the ground and building the forms for the bench pads, and working on the path leading from the walking trail to the labyrinth. There may also be space for you to assist with labyrinth design.
We will work until around mid-afternoon, depending on how many people assist with the project. Lunch will be provided to all of the workers.
