Delegations
Let your faith meet the world in deep ways. Your presence on a delegation is itself an act of solidarity and justice for our sisters and brothers in areas of conflict around the world. A delegation with Christian Peacemaker Teams, Witness for Peace, or the Israel/Palestine Mission Network, is very likely to change your life.
