another diesel, but would
appreciate anything. If you have or know of
a car looking for a home, please
call Sue at Little Flower Catholic Worker,

Join us during the darkest part of the year
to help usher in the new light. We'll
present the
regional premiere of 12 new movies that tell
stories of both hope and terror from around
the
world. Cautionary tales that show how peace
is destroyed by fear, poverty, and ideology.
And
heroic tales of peace achieved through
conflict resolution, cross-cultural studies,
respect for
civil and human rights, and the nurturing of
a just and tolerant society.

Presented by Tidewater Peace Alliance,
a coalition of peace and social justice
organizations.

Films and events l held at either Naro
Cinema or Studio for the Healing Arts,
Norfol, Virginia..
