peacemaker – Madison Catholic Herald

We’ve all heard the saying that if we don’t learn lessons from history, we are in danger of repeating it.

This is especially true for the bad things we’ve experienced. And it seems especially true about our history of violence and war.

This year in August the world marked the 70th anniversary of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan. The United States dropped bombs on these cities during World War II.

School focuses on theme of peacemaking

MADISON — Blessed Sacrament School in Madison’s theme this year is about being a peacemaker.

The theme, “Peace Begins With Me,” was incorporated into the intermediate unit’s annual bonding party in September.

As a team-building activity, students spelled the word “PEACEMAKERS” by placing cups in the church and playground fences. They also formed a human peace symbol on the playground.
