Last Chance to Register for 3-Hour Training in Peaceful Direct Action. As Mennonites we are increasingly being asked to speak up for justice, drawing on our heritage as peacebuilders. This Saturday, March 19 from 10am-1pm, join members of many different MCM churches for a 3-hour virtual training session with Community Peacemaker Teams. Participants will learn de-escalation skills and tips about preparing for non-violent protest, interacting with police and counter-protestors, and practicing self-care. All are welcome! Registration is free but required. Contact allegra@cpt.org with questions. Sponsors of this CPT training session include committees from Hope Mennonite, Home Street Mennonite, Sargent Mennonite, Seeds Church, Fort Garry Mennonite, First Mennonite, Charleswood Mennonite, and Bethel Mennonite.
