Davao Peace Advocates to observe National Day of Healing for Peace and Unity

Peace Advocates in Davao City will hold peace advocacy activities in observance of the National Day of Healing for Peace and Unity on March 6. The organizers enjoin the constituents of the city to join them in their calling for “All out Peace.”

The organizers said they will start the daylong activities with the listening to the call for Al Fajr (dawn) prayer at 4:30AM at the Mosque near Almendras Gym.
It will be followed by “Lakaw Kalinaw,” a “walk in faith” from the Mosque to Monument of Peace and Unity fronting the Sangguniang Panlunsod Building where they can share a light breakfast dubbed “Pamahaw sa Kalinaw”.

By 6:00 AM, there will be “Misa Kalinaw” at the San Pedro Cathedral along San Pedro Street near the City Hall.

This will be followed by “Tawag Kalinaw” at the Peace and Unity Monument at 7:30AM where they will prepare for the “Lakaw sa Kababihan alang sa Kalinaw,” a unity walk from the Freedom Park toward the People’s Park.

At around 11 in the morning at the Freedom Park, the peace advocates will hold the public launch of #Hear Mindanao, #Gong for Peace, #Honk for Peace, and #Bell for Peace.

This is to amplify their calling for the public support for the “All out Peace” in Mindanao.

From 9 to 11 in the morning, a “Peacelikula” featuring the film “War is a Tender Thing” by Film Director Adjani Arumpac.

By 4:30 PM, bikers will be assembled at the Rizal Park for a “Wheels for Peace,” a peace caravan that will traverse Bajada, Dakudao, Boulevard, Ecoland, Sandawa and Matina Town Square (MTS).

Songs for peace from local artists will be heard at the “Musikalinaw” program starting 7 in the evening at the MTS.

The Senate declared March 6 as the National Day of Healing for Peace and Unity "to remember those who perished in Mamasapano as well as the thousands of lives lost from decades of armed conflict."
