James Atwood Institute for Congregational Courage

Gun Violence Prevention Ministry for Such a Time as This

Looking ahead to future Institutes, we invite clergy, lay leaders, and community members from all denominations to join in this vital work. Each Institute will build on the success of the last one, offering even more practical training on how to preach, teach, and engage congregations in gun violence prevention. Attendees will leave with the skills and courage to create meaningful change in their communities and in our nation, in the context of today's political environment.

This year’s keynote will be Reverend Sharon Risher, whose journey from personal tragedy to inspiring forgiveness and hope has resonated widely—learn more about her remarkable story and work on her website.


Space for 2025 is limited, and as of January 6, 2025, registration is now open! Massanetta Springs offers a range of lodging options—from dorm-style rooms to private suites—along with all meals. Some scholarships will be available. We encourage you to sign up early to secure your spot at the next gathering.

Isaiah 61

Join us at Fourth Presbyterian Church for the Isaiah 61 Summit, a powerful gathering for justice rooted in faith and committed to action. We’ll focus on abolishing solitary confinement and building a justice system that centers humanity.

Organized by Presbyterian Peace Fellowship and the National Religious Campaign Against Torture, this gathering is rooted in faith, grounded in action, and fueled by the belief that a world without cages is not only possible: it is necessary.

Come ready to learn, connect, organize, and build justice that truly sets people free.
