Are you ready to help change our World?


What are you doing in January 2012?

SORJ 2011 and guests

Take a moment and consider the upcoming School of Reconciliation and Justice in Harpenden, UK.

Over the last month, the SORJ team have been working in Rwanda with friends here who want to see Rwanda continue to be rebuilt with strong ties of restoration and justice that helps heal their country. 


As the weeks, have unfolded we have explored some of the themes you see below. If you want to learn more about the upcoming SORJ, check this out and then contact us. 
My other posts give you glimpses into the Seminar we just held here in Kigali and the 2011 school.

Our aim is to train individuals or teams to work in many different areas of society that need God’s work of reconciliation and restoration. 


If You want to be involved in peace building in an area of conflict; 
or if You want to be an advocate for the voiceless; 
or if You want to develop a restorative justice team in an inner-city; 
or to work in the political arena; 
this school will help you in developing your plans and your heart to serve God in these areas.

During this three month school, we will be training with international practitioners, researching current issues of conflict or injustice issues, and taking time to seek God’s heart for reconciliation and justice around the world. Then, you have the option of a 2-3 month internship program.
