The International Ecumenical Peace Convocation
met on the
Mona Campus
of the
University of the West Indies.
Memories of those days remain:
learning, leading, warm sun
worship, singing, prayers,
speakers, workshops,
networks built and renewed,
Colombia Accompaniment Program,
new options for pursuing peace,
Red Stripe under the moon,
jerk chicken, sweet and sour tofu,
little hot dogs in sauce, jerk chicken,
Sarah, Marta, Shaya, Theresa
and in the gardens,
purple flowers.

Wonderful, complicated place, Jamaica. My eldest daughter served 2+ years in the Peace Corps, based in Kingston but worked all over the island.
