Following in the footsteps of His Holiness Bhakti Tirtha Swami, who was an exponent of bridge preaching and unity in diversity, his disciples in West Africa and in Togo particular have been participating actively in interfaith dialogue with other major religious faith in the country. It was decided that the Hare Krishnas should host the national day of Prayer for Peace this year by the Commision Permanent De L'espirit d'assise, the Commitee in charge of organising the annual Prayer for Peace in TOGO. The event which took place on the 27th of October was attended by many religious denominations, the government was represented by the Minister of Interior and Territorial Collectivities as well as the Mayor of Lomè.
