Albany New York – Peace Poles – USA

October-2014

In early October, Westminster Presbyterian Church planted 2 Peace Poles in the City of Albany, New York.    When our friends in our partnership church, located in Tema, Ghana, were planning a visit this fall, we decided this would be a great activity to ground our connection together.

We chose two dialects from Ghana for our Peace Pole – Twi and Ga.   In 2015, we plan to plant two more Peace Poles in Tema.   Our pastor, Rev. Frances Rosenau officiated both ceremonies where our refrain was, “May Peace Prevail On Earth!” Amen.
