“Look up in the sky, it’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s … a bird! As the birds are released and take flight they are soon circling overhead as they continue to go higher above their friends that have just released them. Not ordinary birds, mind you, but these are homing pigeons, like the ones used in WWI and WWII to send messages. These special birds are named Love, Joy and Peace.” - Chaplain & District 1 County Commissioner Erik Zoellner - Pastor and Okmulgee Mayor Mickey Baldwin and Chaplin and County Commissioner Erik Zoellner are teaming up to release ‘Love, Joy & Peace’ all over Okmulgee County as they team with other pastors in the county.
