From Fear to Friendship
 

The ability to make our country safe, secure, peaceful and harmonious lies in our hands. Let us unite to honor the victims of 9/11, their families and first responders and strive to transform this tragic day into one of peace & community building. 

 

We will also be honoring one of our own peace makers.
