On Earth Peace
An agency of the Church of the Brethren
empowering people to discern the things that make for peace.
Mission Statement
On Earth Peace is a movement grounded in the Church of the Brethren dedicated to following the teaching of Jesus Christ in renewing and living out our biblical and denominational heritage of peace.
Our purpose, through religious and educational activities, is to empower people to discern the things that make for peace - in ourselves, within families, in our global environment, between nations - and to advocate peace and justice, seeking the realization of God's will on earth as in heaven.
Goals
- To provide an opportunity for every young person in the Church of the Brethren to participate in an extended peace learning opportunity
- To provide an opportunity for every pastor in the Church of the Brethren to learn effective conflict transformation skills
- To assist every congregation in the Church of the Brethren to offer a significant ministry to their community or beyond which addresses the roots of violence and injustice
