In the continuing ACNS series on the Five Marks of Mission, the Episcopal Church of South Sudan is involved in the process of peace making and peace building and in speaking out against gender-based violence, rape and child marriage
“So, my prayer for this year, as I practise peacemaking, is that I will be more effective at calling out scapegoating, better at challenging notions of redemptive violence and actively seek Jesus’ Third Way – I no longer want to regret not handling conflict situations as well as I could,” says the Anglican Schools Commission’s Mission and Education Advisor Vanessa Gamack
“Shalom can be present only when relationships with others are full, complete, healthy…Shalom describes what salvation is – people at one with God and with each other,” says Archbishop Phillip Aspinall
