Churches and nonprofits come together on International Peace Day to bring peace to the streets of Greater Kansas City where more than 200 have died by violence so far this year. The community action was organized by the Church of Scientology Kansas City in partnership with Councilman for the 3rd District-at-Large Brandon Ellington, United in Peace Foundation and The Way to Happiness Foundation.

Planned as a tribute to the life of rapper, entrepreneur, and community activist Nipsy Hussle, the United in Peace Foundation New York Walk for Peace also marched in solidarity with the families of the victims of the Virginia Beach mass shooting.
