Peace

Peace Pole

Berkey’s Peace Pole was erected in August 2009 to replace an older wooden version that had succumbed to the elements. The current pole is made from aluminum and is located by the Southeast corner of the building. It displays the words “May peace prevail on earth” in these languages:

English
Spanish
Swahili
Vietnamese
Chinese
Arabic
Lao
Putunjanjara
A braille plate is also on the pole.

A time capsule is buried beside the peace pole.
