PEACEMAKERS Unit begins on April
11
Throughout the Bible we read stories of people who tried to bring peace and justice to all of God’s people.
Their stories inspire us and help us learn how to be peacemakers today. Children will: Explore how being a peacemaker often
takes courage and skill. Learn that peacemaking is based in fairness, justice, equality, and love. Make a commitment to being
peacemakers in their own homes, schools, and communities.
