You Are Invited
During this 24-hour online vigil, you will travel virtually from the Philippines to Hawai’i, from the Canadian plains to the African desert, touching down on “acupuncture points” on the body of our wounded world where you can participate in healing rituals and ceremonies guided by courageous individuals who offer to transform our divisions by working for a deeper reconciliation and peace.
Your hosts, Dr. Thomas Steininger and Dr. Elizabeth Debold, will introduce you to wisdom keepers from many lineages who will guide you into a deep recognition that we are not separate, and your hosts will also provide you with a seat in ceremony circles around the world where ritual holders are working to heal critical divisions in the human psyche and family.
We welcome you to participate in any or all of the 24-hours, as long as you feel drawn to take part.
You can bear witness and take part by:
- Meditating with gifted spiritual teachers and practitioners from different traditions
- Realizing the remarkable depth of Oneness in a global meditation field
- Sitting with different communities and elders that invite you to take part in ancient and contemporary rituals to deepen our connection with each other and with earth
- Allowing yourself to be touched by the stories and ceremonies of healing and reconciliation
- Standing in solidarity with groups around the world that are working to heal the wounds of war and conflict
- Offering your own ideas and inspiration to help heal the past and forge a wholesome future
- Sharing your experiences with others from around the world
- Developing a greater capacity to hold unity-in-diversity as one whole
This is a global experiment that needs your concern, heart, depth, and vision to be realized. Your real-time engagement as a Witness Bearer will make it possible to create a global ritual space on this planet in which thousands bear witness to the Light and Truth of Unity in the face of the inhumanity, destructiveness, and historical wrongs that human beings have done to each other and to life on Earth.
By holding this whole of the human experience together – not as a concept or idea but as a felt resonance within the field of consciousness that participants will be in together – we create a new potential for healing and connection within humanity.

This year our theme was co-created with #NatureForAll a project of IUCN and DiversEarth.
#NatureForAll is a global movement to inspire a new generation of thinkers and doers across all sectors of society to connect with nature and take action to support its conservation.
Supporting organizations are IUCN CEC, IUCN RESPECC, Bella Gaia, The Fuji Declaration and Goi Peace Foundation celebrating the 20th anniversary of Peace Pals International Art & Exhibition Awards.
Peace Pals international Art Exhibition and Awards started in 1997 inviting children around the world between the ages of 5 through 16 to submit artwork in the spirit of the universal message of peace, May Peace Prevail On Earth.
Since then tens of thousands of artworks have been collected from every continent celebrating the visions of peace held within the hearts of youth. Peace Pals is an activity of The World Peace Prayer Society.
