Trumpets of Peace

TODAY’S READING: Isaiah 2:1–4

Nation will no longer fight against nation, nor train for war anymore. -Isaiah 2:4

The death of a nine-year-old boy in his hometown of New Orleans spurred Shamarr to create a way to get guns out of kids’ hands. Recalling his own childhood in the city and how music helped him forge a healthy path through life, Shamarr collaborated with the police and spearheaded a community effort to offer trumpets and music lessons to anyone who turned in a gun. He hopes that by replacing weapons with musical instruments, area youth will have something safe and constructive to do, thereby diminishing the plague of gun violence and bringing more peace to the city.
