Thursday, September 21 is the 25th annual United Nations International Day of Peace.  Over 160 countries are commemorating this event.  In Santa Barbara there will be an event at the Courthouse Sunken gardens beginning at 6:30 p.m.  The program begins with a proclamation of peace by Mayor Blum followed by words of hope and peace by Rev. Mark Asman, Babatunde Folayemi, Stephen Sherill, and the Rev. Karen Weingard.  Live music will be provided by Lisa Lavie and Lois Mahalia, Melissa Ramsey-Demeter and Dion Mial, backed by the Center of the Heart Band featuring Eje` Lynn-Jacobs, George Friedenthal, Chris Judge, James Spitzer and Chris Thomas.  After the program concludes we will hold a candle light vigil.  This is an event for people of all ages, faiths and political beliefs; a chance to unite with millions around the world in support of peace.
