Dear Friends,
Racism is destructively real. In partnership with Oakland-based Empower Initiative, we are launching a 10-month peacemaking training program that will equip and mobilize 20 black peacemakers to lead a national movement of reconciliation. For specifics, go here.
Fuller Theological Seminary’s President, Dr. Mark Labberton, puts it this way:
“The chasm between blacks & whites in America is widening. The pain is deep and the injustice is real. If ever there was a time for American Christians to move from sideline observation to humble, courageous engagement within our race divide, it is now. I wholeheartedly believe in Jer, Jon, and Ben. I believe in their friendship, their visionary leadership, and the Kingdom-potential of this essential project. I’m invested in them and in the peacemakers they train and invite you to do the same."
We need your help to get this project off the ground.
With $15,000 already raised, will you join Mark Labberton and others around the country as we, together, invest in 20 of our country’s leading black peacemakers?
Total Project Cost: $4500/leader = $90,000.

Will you make a year-end or monthly tax-deductible contribution to help this project become reality?
