Presbyterian Peace Fellowship - Loving those who hurt because they have caused harm

Caring for those who experience moral injury Military personnel are asked to serve on behalf of our country, laying their lives on the line to follow military directives. The impact of this service on personnel and their families can be great. By confronting militarism, the church is called to challenge an ideology that prioritizes military responses and unjustifiably endangers the lives of civilians, personnel and their families. The church is called to offer genuine support for all those impacted by war and military action. That's why we are excited to announce the next webinar in the series, “Connecting the Dots: Militarism and Moral Injury”.  PPF has been working alongside the Presbyterian Mission Agency to develop opportunities to support congregations as they seek to live and preach the things that make for peace.   Connecting the Dots: Militarism and Moral Injury November 9, 2022 Noon-1:30pm ET Register Today In this webinar we will learn about the impact military service has on active personnel, veterans, and their families, and how the church can offer better support to these communities. We will be hearing from veterans, academics, and psychologists, who all have experience in the field of study that has been termed “Moral Injury”, examining the impacts of military service and the effect that can occur “in response to acting or witnessing behaviors that go against an individual's values and moral beliefs.” We hope to see you there!
