FGC and the World Council of Churches Decade to Overcome Violence

by Tom Paxson. The Decade to Overcome Violence was envisioned by the World Council of Churches as an effort to stimulate a grassroots movement by directing international attention both to the challenge of overcoming violence and building cultures of peace and to initiatives being taken toward this end in the churches.

From Canada in Love, Hope and Solidarity

“I come as a 'living letter' from your northern neighbor Canada to accompany you and encourage you as you face extraordinary challenges in witnessing to peace with justice in a world overwhelmed by violence.”
