Resistance: Taking a stand against war, 1960s to today
PAX Club invites you to join us for a day of reflection on the theme of Resistance. We will hear stories and reflections from draft resisters who were student leaders in the late 1960s and helped shift how Mennonites think about peacemaking. We will also dialogue about what a faithful peace witness looks like today through breakout sessions on themes of: tax resistance, counter-recruitment, and engaging the military.
Lunch will be provided by AVI Fresh.
