Welcome to the First International Scout Family

Peace Light Celebrations

Today i was at our peace light celebration with members of the county scout fellowships and the fellowship from Brownsea island.The peace light had travelled from Bethlehem and from there had gone all around the world with ceremonies for each collection of the light.The pictures show some of our Mid-wilts fellowship members plus others who came from surounding counties.
Below is one of the readings from our ceremony.

May the kindly spirit of Christmas spread it's radience far and wide
So all the world may feel the glow of this Holy Christmastide.
So may this light of peace today that has travelled many miles
Bring joy and hope to many and fill each face with smiles
So may every heart and home continue through the year
To feel the warmth and wonder of this season of good cheer
And may it bring us closer, to God and to each other
With every stranger known as friend,whether sister of brother.

This is a nice message about the peace light.

Take this light as a symbol of peace.
Peace I leave with you
Take it and pass it on to everyone
and the world will know that you are my friends
