Thoughts on the peace through social justice conference

Terry Odendahl

This is my third consecutive EFC conference and each one is getting better, perhaps because: I know more people who are welcoming; the theme of ‘Peace Through Social Justice’ resonates; the sessions relate to the theme; and I’ve learned something in every one attended.

Since Tuesday, I’ve run into a range of participants, from quiet newcomers to confident old-timers (thank you Barry Knight and the risky business crowd for the label). There’s been more talking with, rather than at each other, in both the hallways and workshops.
