CHICAGO/TORONTO: CPT seeking peacemakers for September and
October delegations

Christian Peacemaker Teams is seeking applications for early
autumn delegations to Palestine/Israel (5-18 October; apply by 8 September); Colombia
(13-26 October 2010; apply by 15 September); and Treaty #3 territory in
Northwest Ontario (24 September-6 October, apply by 8 September). Delegates to each of these areas become
familiar with situations of injustice affecting local people and become
effective instruments for peace as they spread the word about what they see and
hear in their home communities and elsewhere. See details at https://cpt.org/participate/delegation/schedule
or contact Claire Evans, CPT’s delegation coordinator, at +1-773-376-0550, or
via email: delegations@cpt.org.
