Our History 

This project was initiated year 1995 by the United Nations 50th Anniversary GLOBAL PEACE WALK ’95 from New York (January 15th MLK birthday) to San Francisco (June 20th). A book containing the messages and many letters of support from this walk was hand delivered to the President of the United Nations General Assembly at the United Nations in New York in October 1995, The purpose of the Global Peace Walk is to bring out Global Peace Now as a prayer by all of humanity and to foster the development of a Spiritual United Nations to affect Global Peace Now by establishing, with The Peace Pole Ceremony, Global Peace Zones across the country and around the world. After the Earth Day 1996 Peace Pole Ceremony in Taos, on April 24th the Mayor declared Taos the first GLOBAL PEACE ZONE pursuant to this campaign, and upon the walk’s arrival in Santa Fe, the Mayor there declared April 26th Global Peace Walk Day. Rev. Yamato has resolved to begin an annual ceremony of commemoration and to further the development of a permanent land based spiritual community in the Taos area to pursue the goals of the Global Peace Walk.
