For 37 years the Presbyterian Peacemaking Program has brought partners from around the world to visit with our mid-councils, colleges, seminaries and congregations. Like pebbles dropped in water, these visits have rippled across the Presbyterian Church (USA) deepening our understanding of complex issues, challenging the limitations of our perspectives, building lasting relationships with global friends, and inspiring us to new initiatives.

In 2020, in light of the challenges we face, we have shifted the program from in-person visits to online conversations. We are grateful to the 16 past peacemakers from 2012-2019 who have joined us for this virtual symposium. This time together is an opportunity to catch-up with them, be updated on their work and hear from them on the challenging topics of our day.

For additional information, descriptions and links to the interviews, panel discussions and presentations that comprise this Symposium, click here. They are available for you to view at any time. Materials will also be released daily on the Presbyterian Peacemaking Program’s Facebook Page during the dates of the Symposium, September 27-October 10, 2020.
