The Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) has long supported the United Nations and its work.
The anniversary of the entry into force of the United Nations Charter on October 24, 1945 has been celebrated as United Nations Day since 1948. It has traditionally been marked throughout the world by meetings, discussions and exhibits on the achievements and goals of the Organization.
Ideas for observing the day include:
