"To
proclaim Jesus Christ is to proclaim the worth of all
persons. I cannot do the one without the other"
writes Andrew Bolton in "Worth of All Persons,"
this month's
Enduring Principles commentary.
The 2009 Community of Christ
International Peace Award
was presented to Dr. Halima Bashir, activist for the women and
children of Darfur. Her story and others
highlighting "Justice for Women, Dignity for All" make
up the 2009 Peace Colloquy archives.
Working to continuously improve
how we live out our commitment to the worth of all
persons, leaders of Community of Christ and our
affiliate organizations gathered recently in a
Peacemakers Summit to share ideas, increase
collaboration, and offer mutual support. |
