Peace and Reconciliation Weekend Training

Peace Church spent the last weekend of January at a retreat centre for 3 days where we participated in Peacebuilders Community's (another ministry of Mennonite Church Canada) Peace and Reconciliation Trainer's Training. Kriz Cruzado, a dear friend of ours from Davao, came for the weekend to teach our eager group of Peace Church members- pastors, NGO workers, community organizers, and training specialists.... we have an all-star team, really :)  We had a very fun time together over the weekend at a beautiful (and very affordable!) location. Kriz kept us engaged and excited about the material all day Friday and Saturday and then on Sunday we had a very meaningful time of worship together, with extra family members and friends joining us. We are SO very thankful for this amazing community and look forward to implementing some of the exciting ideas we have in spreading Peace and Reconciliation in this beautiful land!
