War Awareness

In a time of war…WE ARE PEACEMAKERS

Iraqi and Afghani families, even more than our own, are grieving and fearful. We in the United Church of Christ are peacemakers. What do we do, with war as an everpresent background to our everyday reality? How do we keep from becoming numb and oblivious?
