The Board of Church and Society is hosting a consultation and listening session for churches with peace and justice ministries. We will share stories about our ministries, discover ideas from each other, explore new ways to build effective approaches to engage congregations in justice and peace work and share ideas about having difficult discussions on contentious topics. As a church we need to find ways to heal the major divisions we all experience, but have difficulty dealing with. Congregations struggle with forming ministries to address these issues so we need to learn new ways of sharing the Gospel and Biblical narrative in ways that reconcile, heal and create justice in society. The agenda will focus on dialogue and sharing.. with an emphasis on listening to learn from each other. No Registration required, but would appreciate knowing if you intend attending.
