STANDING FOR CHANGE May 13, 2007

Following the tradition of the Silent Grandmothers (read the story on www.standingwomen.org), seven members of Deering Community Church plus two residents of Longwood gathered at Town hall at noon to stand in silence for 5 minutes, thinking of how the world needs to be changed. Some of us meditated on the following:

We are standing for the world’s children and grandchildren, and for the seven generations beyond them.

We dream of a world where all of our children have safe drinking water, clean air to breathe, and enough food to eat.

A world where they have access to a basic education to develop their minds and healthcare to nurture their growing bodies.

A world where they have a warm, safe and loving place to call home.

A world where they don’t live in fear of violence, in their home, in their neighborhood, in their school or in their world.

This is the world of which we dream.

This is the cause for which we stand.
