Dear friends,

My Dear Brothers and Sisters,

It gives me immense joy and deep gratitude to welcome you all to this year’s Peace Parliament, a gathering where hearts unite, minds collaborate, and voices raise together for the cause of global harmony. The World Peace Mission has always believed that peace is not merely an ideal—it is a responsibility, a discipline, and a shared journey that begins with each one of us.

In a world facing growing divisions and uncertainties, the purpose of this Parliament is clear: to create a platform where dialogue replaces discord, compassion replaces conflict, and unity replaces misunderstanding. Here, we honour every faith, every culture, and every community, recognising that our diversity is our strength and our shared humanity is our greatest common ground.

As Chairman of the World Peace Mission, I am deeply humbled by your esteemed presence and contributed participation. Each of you represents a light-one that, when joined with others, can illuminate a path towards a more peaceful world. May today’s discussions inspire transformative ideas, meaningful collaborations, and renewed commitment to build harmony in our families, societies and nations.

Let us move forward with courage, kindness and the conviction that peace is possible-when we stand together and love each other.

With warm regards and heartfelt prayers.

Sunny Stephen
