October 13 Prayers for Peace

On October 13, from 9 to 11 o'clock, Tzu Chi Foundation in Taiwan will hold a solemn, meritorious ceremony for survivors and families of victims of the September 11 attacks in New York and Washington, DC. The Tzu Chi Great Love Television station will record the entire activity. At the same time, they will make a live broadcast from an activity in Peace Park in New Jersey. Tzu Chi members from around the United States will join with victims' families, religious personnel, and representatives from the state government and the Red Cross in praying for blessings.

Great Love Television will begin broadcasting the program at 7 am EST on October 13. At 9:11 am, the ceremony in Peace Park in New Jersey will be broadcast live. The day's activities will be deeply meaningful. Even if Tzu Chi members are unable to personally attend, they can still tune in to Great Love Television at 9:11 EST. Tzu Chi people in every part of the world can thus join together to pray for blessings and express our sorrow for the victims of the 9-11 tragedy, and pray for peace for the whole world.
