 Airline supports UN designated International Day of Peace -

All Gulf Air flights yesterday also carried peace doves, made by The RIA Centre's children. At the centre in Adliya, more than 70 children also "planted" pinwheels in the garden as part of the Pinwheels for Peace international project and art exhibit.

Each pinwheel carried the child's message for peace.

 

 

 

They also displayed prayer flags on the fences surrounding
the club and inside the prayer hall during the morning. Each
flag carried a message of peace and a handprint of a student
or teacher.

Representatives of St Christopher's Cathedral, the Mar Thoma
Parish,
Sacred Heart Church and Al Fateh Religious Institute
attended.

The Muharraq Club was chosen so that passengers landing
and taking off at the
Bahrain International Airport had an
aerial view of the event.
