Peace Pole Dedication Ceremony at Omega Institute on the International Day of Peace-Rhinebeck, New York-USA

September 21st, 2012

In honor of the International Day of Peace (IDP), Ann Marie Robustelli of The World Peace Prayer Society presented a World Peace Prayer Ceremony, with the assistance from Dennis Rooney, a life long resident of Amenia, NY and community volunteer. Together they officially dedicated the Peace Pole, which was purchased and planted many years ago in the Omega Institute Peace Garden. Flag cards were used to represent every country in the world, in lieu of WPPS County Flags to accommodate the venue. More than 700 people who were present on campus this day to attend various workshops, were simply in awe of
this very special World Peace Ceremony. Directors, keynote speakers and attendees, stopped by to participate, take photographs and inquire about the WPPC and the Peace Pole Project.

Later, Ann Marie brought ShopPeace items to the Omega Book/Gift Shop with hope to collaborate with Omega to help support WPPS in spreading the
Universal Peace Message, “May Peace Prevail On Earth.” The Executive Shop Manager was very receptive.
