National Registry Listing:
The churches, groups and individuals which are listed on the registry below hereby give public expression to their intention to be on the journey of peacemaking and in a general way to support the movement to make every church a peace church.
They have committed to some form of study and action process around the following affirmations, knowing that Jesus’ call to be peacemakers includes many things, but believing that in the United States today these affirmations represent a meaningful starting point in a journey which will find many forms of expression:
1. We, the churches, groups and individuals listed on the registry below hereby give public expression to our intention to walk the journey of nonviolent peacemaking and in our own way to support the movement to make every church a peace church.
2. We have committed to a process of prayer, study, and action, focused on Jesus’ call to love all, even our enemies, and a vision that the church could turn the world toward peace if every church lived and taught as Jesus lived and taught.
