We often feel helpless or even overwhelmed in the shadow and divisiveness of world events, but we can still make a difference by focusing on community. Even small actions can enrich relationships and spread peace. In this spirit, on International Day of Peace, September 21st, 2025 people around the world will unite in song to celebrate peace, community, and shared humanity. At exactly 2PM local time, choirs and individuals across continents will sing together to send a message that resonates far and wide:
We are One World. One People.
Local Gathering at Mary’s Point Interpretive Centre
Here in Fundy-Albert, we’ll gather on the lawn of the Mary’s Point Interpretive Centre (415 Mary’s Point Rd), a place where land, marsh, and sea merge, echoing the themes of migration and connection. Three stone monuments inscribed in Mi’kmaq, French, and English stand there as symbols of our region’s earliest cultures and shared heritage. As we sing, our voices will rise and ripple across the Bay of Fundy.

Led by Local Musicians Tim Isaac & Paul Toner
Tim and Paul will guide us through 3–5 familiar peace-focused songs, culminating in a shared rendition of What a Wonderful World. This global finale will link our voices with others across time zones, creating a worldwide soundwave of peace and positivity.
Post-Sing Pot Luck Gathering at Harvey Hall
After the music, we’ll reconvene at Harvey Hall (29 Mary’s Point Rd)—an historic community gathering place—for a discussion on peace and a shared potluck meal. Bring a dish, bring your thoughts, and bring your heart. We’ll celebrate unity in the most human way: through song and food, conversation and connection.
Let’s raise our voices together—because peace begins with a single note.
Weather Plan
In case of rain, the entire event will be held indoors at Harvey Hall.
