Across the country and the world, tensions are escalating. What can you do in a moment of crisis, at a local demonstration, or in an ordinary conversation, to lower the volume, remain calm, and create peace? This interactive workshop will provide practical skills of nonviolence, presented through a Benedictine lens, and grounded in Gospel nonviolence. This training will be led by Sister Anne McCarthy, Coordinator of Benedictines for Peace and Pax Christi USA Ambassador of Peace. This offering a part of this year's Benedictine Peacemakers curriculum.
