Church leaders from seven countries currently making historic choices for or against outlawing nuclear weapons went on a pilgrimage to the two Japanese cities that were decimated by atomic bombs 70 years ago.
Short video testimonials by the delegation members as well as other audio-visual footage are now available at photos.oikoumene.org.
These materials may be used free of charge in media coverage about the pilgrimage.
