In a beautiful blending of themes, WFWP San Diego brought together faith, community, and empowerment under the harmonious banner of "Peace Begins with Me." It all started last month when Rohida Khan, a Victims Assistance Specialist with Homeland Security, and Caroline Betancourt, WFWP Acting Chairwoman in San Diego, collaborated with Keiko Leow and Solange Weiss, officers of the San Diego chapter, to host a lovely tea gathering at Rohida's home. The gathering stemmed from Rohida’s desire to create a regular space where women could have open, meaningful discussions on faith and social issues. This led to the creation of monthly teas centered on the theme “Peace Begins with Me.”

On September 21, as we celebrate the International Day of Peace, WFWP USA embraced a powerful message of reconciliation and unity. Across the nation, over 12 Bridge of Peace ceremonies took place, bringing women together to foster understanding, heal divisions, and create lasting peace. These programs highlight the essential role of reconciliation in conflict resolution, reminding us that true peace starts within and extends outward.
