Many participants at the 13th Annual International Nonviolence Summer Institute enjoyed making Peace Postcards. This exciting project was introduced to us by participant  Terry Taylor, Executive Director of a Louisville-based inter-religious non-profit organization called Interfaith Paths to Peace. We each created original Peace Postcards and signed our name and home city, state, or country and Terry will post these on his Peace Postcards site.

Peace Postcards was started in 2008 by Allan Weiss. The goal of Peace Postcards is to encourage people to think about peace and what it means for the future of the world.  To date, over 8,000 Peace Postcards have been received from the United States and many nations around the world, including Israel, Morocco, Iran, Columbia, Japan, Rwanda, Great Britain, Canada, Denmark, Afghanistan, Costa Rica, Germany, New Caledonia and China.
