Swan Hill/Nyah West Mother’s union folded 42 beautifully coloured origami ribbon stars which were on display in the church last Sunday. They have now been sent off to become part of The One Million Stars to End Violence installation at the Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games.
One Million Stars to End Violence is a peaceful global weaving project that that encourages people to be the light and kindness they want to see in the world. It was started by Maryann Talia Pau born in Apia Samoa and currently based on Quandamooka country, Brisbane, in response to the rape and murder of a young woman in her community. You can read more about Apia and her vision here. In the photo Lyn and Leone stand with the stars on display in our church.
