Daily Audio Reflections for Nonviolence

The Season for Nonviolence, launched at the United Nations in 1998, marks the annual 64 calendar days between the memorial anniversary of the assassination of Mohandas K. Gandhi on January 30 and that of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. on April 4. 

The Season teaches that every person can move the world forward in the direction of peace through daily nonviolent choices and actions. 

The Franciscan Peace Center has created a series of daily one-minute audio reflections about nonviolence recorded by the Sisters of St. Francis, Clinton, Iowa. These reflections will be released daily throughout the Season for Nonviolence.

 You can listen to the first reflection of the season HERE - the theme is "courage."

We invite you to listen to, ponder, and share each new daily reflection.  The recordings will be posted daily on the Clinton Franciscans website and Twitter, and will also be available on Facebook and on SoundCloud.  Individuals can also sign up to receive the daily reflections via email.
