Peace Pole

What’s the Peace Pole?

Myers Park Presbyterian Church has a Peace Pole located in the Circle Drive outside the prayer chapel. Our Peace Pole is a symbol of peace and a gathering place amid unrest. “May Peace Prevail on Earth” is inscribed in English, Spanish, French, and Hebrew. With God’s help, we recognize that peace is both a personal and collective pursuit.

This sacred space is always open for anyone who wishes to spend time in prayer – alone or with others – or to submit prayers to our prayer box, beautifully painted by local artist and church member Caroline Simas.

Together, we continue to seek peace in our hearts and in the world. May peace prevail on earth.
