This week, we are participating in Korea Peace Advocacy Week, advocating for an end to the Korean War along with our faith and secular partners. Korea Peace Week reminds us that the Korean War never truly ended. Military commanders signed an armistice agreement in July 1953, but no peace treaty has ever been agreed to. Koreans have now lived with the threat of war for almost seventy years.
To mark this week, we are asking you to sign the Korea Peace Appeal. The 2022 General Assembly called on Presbyterians to join the appeal, which was organized by PC(USA) partners in the National Council of Churches of Korea (NCCK). The campaign aims to end the Korean War and achieve peace on the Korean Peninsula by collecting 1 million signatures before July 2023, the 70th anniversary of the armistice agreement. More than 370 South Korean civil society organizations, religious groups, individual supporters, and international partner organizations are participating in the Korea Peace Appeal. Please join them and list "Presbyterian Church (USA)" in the affiliation field when you sign.
