GoalThe goal of this project is to equip Christian peacemakers from around the world with the skills and tools for training and engaging in transformative action in conflict situations.
SummaryThis project seeks to raise $9,450 per year to provide scholarships for Christian peacemakers to attend 10-day training sessions.
DescriptionIn 2017, Dan and Sharon Buttry, began a series of TCTTs - Training of Conflict Transformation Trainers. The purpose was to develop trainers who could train other Christian peacemakers from around the world and equip them with the skills and tools for training and engaging in transformative action in conflict situations. Each 10-day session prepares the trainers to be creative leaders in conflict situations throughout the world. These conflicts include wars and post-war reconciliation, ethnic violence, religious persecution, internal Baptist convention conflicts and congregational and family conflicts. Participants will learn skills to constructively intervene in conflicts and train others in conflict transformation. This project will provide scholarship funds so that Christian peacemakers who otherwise could not afford to travel, can attend these trainings.
Suggested Gifts$30 provides one day of accommodation and meals for one participant $100 buys flipchart paper for all the workshops. $250 provides a plane ticket for a participant from a neighboring country. $500 provides a full scholarship for one person.
Prayer RequestsPlease pray that all who want to attend these trainings will be enabled to come.
