| Hope Peace Makers | | University Lutheran Church of Hope Peacemakers are a small group that meets quarterly. They study peace by reading books and publications, such as the theologian Walter Wink's "Engaging the Powers," and Father McCarthy's "The Just War Theory: A Christian Deceit", and come together to discuss them.
Hope Peacemakers also organize action around peace issues. In the past year they * Organized University Lutheran Church of Hope members to join them in two peace marches and carried signs identifying themselves. * Sold "Say No To War With Iraq" signs to all members desiring them. * Organized a movie night and discussion of the film "Bonhoeffer" for members and friends of the congregation when it was showing at the University Film Society. * Circulated a petition to repeal the Conceal and Carry law. * Endorsed and help sponsor the "Every Church a Peace Church " Conference which took place last spring at Central Lutheran Church.
