Stephannie Fox-Dixon's Prayer for Peace

Stephannie Fox Dixons poem from Elkader

PLEASE CLICK on Stephannie's artwork to enjoy it in an enlarged format.

    Here's a terrific series of stories about two American high school
students from a small town in Iowa who are inspiring readers far and
wide with the wisdom of—a long-forgotten Muslim hero who lived in lands
far away:
1.) Stephannie wins the essay contest with this wisdom.
2.) Stephannie offers a poem and prayer for peace.
3.) Rebecca writes on how students' lives can be shaped.
4.) The Peace X Peace international women's network
plans to publish excerpts of their essays, too. The article isn't up on
Peace X Peace's site just yet, but this link will reach that story when
it appears..
