"Peace Pilgrim" Visits ACC
On 25,000 Mile Walkathon
On Wednesday, March 4, a wo
man known only by the name of
“Peace Pilgrim” visited Wilson and
Atlantic Christian College. Her pur
pose was to walk 25,000 miles for
the cause of world peace, and up
to the point of her visit in Wilson
she had walked 23,500 miles. She
walks only with the clothes she is
wearing, carries no money, and
stays over night only in the homes
of people willing to provide her with
a place to slee^. This was her
third such walk across the United
States, and she has also visited
Canada and Mexico.
Her walks started in 1953, and
when asked how she had started
such a life she said, “In my early
life money making was easy and
meaningless. When I began to live
to give instead of to get, my life
became meaningful, and I knew
my life work would be work for
peace. There followed fifteen years
of serving and speaking, before I
found inner peace and began my
peace pilgrimage.”
She went on to say that the work
she was doing was possible because
she has inner peace, and is able
to bring about control of mind over
body.
While discussing current world sit
uations she said she would like to
see the creation of a Peace Depart
ment in the President’s Cabinet, and
the establishment of a world lang
uage by the United Nations. This
language could be created by a
group of language experts through
out the world. She also believes
the U. N. forces could successfully
disarm and unite East and West
Germany, and that the United States
should recognize Red China in the
U. N. in order to bring them to the
bargaining table.
Her pet project is “to commend
every good thing that comes to your
attention and to give it strength.”
Some of her favorite sayings are,
“unnecessary positions are unneces
sary burdens,” “the world is like
a mirror, if you smile at it, it
will smile at you.” and “the wish to
survive will push us into an uneasy
world peace.”
