Plymouth Church conference focuses on ‘reviving peace’

Building on last year’s conference on “Reviving Justice,” Plymouth Church, UCC, hosted a two-day event on Sept. 24 and 25 called “Reviving Peace.”

About 140 people attended the conference, which sought to provide opportunities for attendees to learn about diverse spiritual traditions, and to make new connections for peace work.

The conference included a symposium for Christian clergy on “Christianity in a religiously diverse world.” Speakers included representatives of the Christian, Jewish, Muslim and Sikh faiths, as well as presenters from the ACLU of Wisconsin, MICAH, UWM School of Freshwater Sciences and Fair Wisconsin.
