Peace Breakfast for Dinner

July 3, 2022

Sunday, July 3

7pm ET / 4pm PT

This whole General Assembly is out of the ordinary, so we’re flipping the tradition of the Peace Breakfast on its head, too! After many years of gathering at GA early in the morning to connect around peacemaking and celebrate the Peaceseeker Award recipients, this year we’re inviting you to make your favorite breakfast for dinner and join us on zoom for learning, celebration, and fellowship.
This event will be hosted by our PPF General Assembly Interns. We’ll play trivia and hear from our Peaceseeker Award winners as well as keynote speaker and climate activist, Svitlana Romanko. Whether you love pancakes or you’re more of a frittata person, we’re looking forward to sharing this time with one another.
We welcome commissioners, delegates and any other Presbyterians and people who want to connect with PPF during this season of the General Assembly.

Join the pancake party!
