Pause for Peace

Let us join our Bahá’í brothers and sisters and multiple Faith traditions worldwide in heightening the consciousness of Peace—peace within our own hearts, peace within our communities, and peace rippling outward across our world.

This beautiful invitation has been shared around the globe as a simple yet powerful spiritual practice: pausing together in conscious awareness to hold the vision of peace for our planet.

In the teachings of Science of Mind, we recognize that thought is creative and that the collective consciousness of humanity helps shape the conditions of our world. When we intentionally turn our attention toward peace, compassion, and harmony, we are participating in the transformation of the mental atmosphere of the planet.

We invite you to support this initiative by joining in a daily Pause for Peace.

Each day, at the designated time for each country, people around the world pause for one minute to pray, affirm, or hold the consciousness of peace—calling forth an end to conflict and the restoration of calm, dignity, and safety for all people everywhere. We also hold families everywhere in our prayers, affirming their protection, security, and Divine support.

In Canada, the time set is 12:00 noon across all time zones.

Together, in this simple shared moment, we participate in the spiritual truth that peace begins in consciousness and radiates outward through every heart willing to hold it.
