Events8/2/08 » Waging Peace in Sudan Saturday, August 2nd, at 6:30pm Milwaukee Mennonite Church 9235 West Bluemound Rd, Milwaukee Visit Web Site People are suffering . . . how do we respond? Saturday, August 2nd, at 6:30pm, Milwaukee Mennonite Church (meeting at Martin Luther Lutheran Church, 9235 West Bluemound Rd, Milwaukee) How can we, in the United States and Canada, help to wage peace in war-torn Darfur and Southern Sudan? What can we do to quell the violence, promote reconciliation, and assist in local efforts to build a lasting peace in the region? One place to start is to learn about the challenges people in Sudan face every day as well as the hopes they have for the future. Tammy Alexander, Legislative Assistant for International Affairs from the Washington DC Office of the Mennonite Central Committee (the relief, development, and peace agency of the Mennonite church), will present MCC's advocacy campaign for war-torn Sudan. Understand why Sudan continues to have civil conflicts, what peace-making efforts are underway, and what actions need to be taken today. Following the presentation will be an informal Q&A session on ways we can help, including other peace and legislative advocacy efforts of MCC's Washington Office. All are welcome to attend this event, hosted by Milwaukee Mennonite Church, www.milwaukeemennonite.org. A freewill collection will be taken for Sudan. |
