The Courage of Our Convictions
What is the role of being an advocate all about? Join the Justice and Peace Action Team of Greater Kansas City for a training and dialogue on the importance of being an advocate for justice and peace in response to the prophetic call to “courageously challenge cultural, political, and religious trends that are contrary to the reconciling and restoring purposes of God. Pursue peace.” (Doctrine & Covenants 163:3b).
We will discuss how advocacy connects to the Community of Christ Mission Initiatives, Enduring Principles, and World Conference Resolutions. You will hear stories and experiences from civil society activists that are making a difference in the public square. You will learn ways to start or continue your own journey of advocacy.
