Justice and Peace

Our Mission

To function as a conduit for information resources/concerns from the denomination to the individual churches and vice versa.


Who we are?


The Justice and Peace Ministry Team (formerly the Peace and Justice Task Force) meets by teleconference 4 to 6 times each year, with up to 2 members from each association and 2 at-large members. Members have a passion for peace and justice work. The team will work with local church social justice groups, ecumenical and community groups in our 3-state region and with the national offices.
