All Media, all People, Invited to Farewell Sacred Peace Fire to Sydney Olympics Peace Walk Leaving Ceremony: 10am Saturday, August 26- Farewell Ceremony at Canberra Aboriginal Tent Embassy Walking the Land For Our Ancient Right, for Peace and Healing will head out on the final leg of its historic 3000km journey to the Sydney Olympic Games, tomorrow at 10am. Walk leader, peacemaker and Arabunna elder, Kevin Buzzacott, is carrying the Sacred Fire for Peace, all the way from his people's country at Lake Eyre, in South Australia's north. Many people from around Australia and the world, from many nations and cultures, have supported Kevin on this epic journey, which is destined to become a part of Australia's heritage. The Peace Fire will bless the Olympic Games and its athletes, offering a message of Peace and Healing to the world. Since being welcomed in Canberra on Monday August 21 Uncle Kevin and the Peace Walkers have been camping at the Aboriginal Tent Embassy where the Fire for Justice burns. The hospitality the Walk has received at the Embassy has been heart warming, as have the welcomes by all the communities along the way of the Walk. "We have come in the right way to all these lands, by coming in peace, with respect and we have been warmly welcomed, and have been given safe passage" said Kevin today. "Now we are Walking the final leg to Sydney and we welcome people from all walks of life to join us to carry this message of Peace to the world. Even if only for a little while, you are invited to join us" says Kevin. Regional Elders, Uncle Kevin and the Peace Walkers have shared this time in Canberra with the Sacred Run, a multi-cultural relay run, also carrying a message of Peace to Sydney. "We have had Sacred Fire Ceremonies, we have blessed and been blessed, we have been cleansed and have cleansed- this will help keep our journey to Sydney safe" says Kevin. While in Canberra Uncle Kevin and the Peace Walkers have invited all Parliamentarians to join the Walk, The Governor General and the Queen have been invited and yesterday many international embassies were invited to join the Walk. Tomorrow, August 26, all the media, and all peoples are invited to share in a Farewell Ceremony for the Sacred Peace Fire, and to join the Walkers as they Walk towards Sydney and the sea. ------------------------------------------------------ RecOzNet2 has a page @ http://www.green.net.au/recoznet2 and is archived at http://www.mail-archive.com/ To unsubscribe from this list, mail [EMAIL PROTECTED], and in the body of the message, include the words: unsubscribe announce or click here mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?Body=unsubscribe%20announce This posting is provided to the individual members of this group without permission from the copyright owner for purposes of criticism, comment, scholarship and research under the "fair use" provisions of the Federal copyright laws and it may not be distributed further without permission of the copyright owner, except for "fair use."
