December 21, 2011

At 3:00 P.M. on Sunday, January 8, the Pax Christi Film Series will show “Mahatma Gandhi, Pilgrim of Peace” at the Mother Teresa Center, 2400 East Yandell Drive, El Paso.

Through rare footage and through interviews with the Dalai Lama, Arun Gandhi (Mahatma Gandhi’s grandson) and others, this A&E Biography examines the life of a great 20th century leader and the nonviolent liberation struggle of India against British imperialism. Albert Einstein said of Mahatma Gandhi: “Generations to come will scarce believe that such a one as this walked the earth in flesh and blood.”

This is one in a series of topical films sponsored by Pax Christi El Paso and the Peace and Justice Ministry of the El Paso Catholic Diocese. For more information, call (915) 532-0527
