“Peace is not the absence of conflict but the presence of creative processes by which human communities become ever more skillful and habituated at working through their conflicts without recourse to violence and without demeaning one another’s dignity.”  from  Advancing Nonviolence and Just Peace in the Church and the World (Pax Christi International)

For self-reflection:  Do I want peace at any price?  Do I know how to disagree without threatening someone’s dignity?  Are there interpersonal skills I need to learn?  Interested in joining the MMOC’s Peace and Justice Ministry?  Call or text Saralou Hendrickson 314-440-2020.
