Blessing of the Peacemakers
(20th Annual)

Sunday, January 26, 2025 from 3pm-5pm

Palmetto Center for the Arts (PCA) Theater

The Blessing of the Peacemakers marks the beginning of the season of nonviolence and honors peacemakers across the community.

Come celebrate two decades of honoring San Antonio’s Peace Laureates and our compassionate community!

This year’s theme, “Who Is Our Neighbor?” invites us to reflect on the power of connection and intentional acts of neighborliness. Our 2025 Peace Laureates embody this spirit, expanding and challenging our understanding of what it means to welcome, extend hospitality, and build relationships.
