Peacemakers’ Logo

Our Peacemakers’ flag and patch symbolize our ultimate goal—peace with all people. Specific parts of the flag identified below convey this overall meaning. Bowing to the national flag affiliated with its country of origin is customary in martial arts training. In Peacemakers, however, we do not bow to a national flag but one that represents the larger world. We seek to serve “One world under God.”



The olive branches traditionally symbolize peace.

The dove is both a symbol for peace and for
God’s Spirit, our source and power for peace.

The world represents our global family of various
colors, cultures and creeds.

The people joined together symbolize unity amidst our
diversity and are reaching out with respect and love.          

 


Peacemakers Pledge

As Peacemakers, we aim to seek peace, stop violence, and transform conflict.
  Toward this end, I pledge to:


• Have esteem for myself and respect for others,
• Set my heart to courage and my mind to wisdom,
• Be responsible for my emotions and actions,
• Act with honor, compassion, and self-control,
• Use my head more than my hands in conflict,
• Seek to do no harm to others or myself, and
• Resolve problems in positive ways for peace.
