The Until We Meet Again Tour – 12 July 2016, part two
During the Until We Meet Again Tour‘s visit to the United Nations with Grace Ji-Sun Kim and Elisabeth Lee, I had the opportunity to see my favorite exhibit.
An escopeterra, invented by Colombian peace activist César López, stands a sign of hope and peace.
They shall beat their AK-47s into guitars.

Protect church leaders in Colombia
I signed a petition this morning to support Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) partners and denounce the death threats were received on January 11, 2015 by three of the pastoral leaders in our partner church, the Iglesia Presbiteriana de Colombia. Thanks to the Presbyterian Peace Fellowship and Presbyterian World Mission for creating the petition. Thanks to the Stated Clerk of the General Assembly of the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) for sending a letter on behalf of our partners.
You can sign too.
See you along the Trail.
Purple flowers, Villa Blanca, Colombia
1 April 2010
Villa Blanca, Colombia
I try to post purple flower pictures once a week,
an act of discipline,
creating a theme,
building an audience
(know that I deeply appreciate both of you).
However, today I did a blog post on Colombia for work.
And as I looked for a picture,
I came across this one
and it too me back
to a very special day.
At Villa Blanca, where displaced Colombians,
who in an act of courage and grace
beyond my imagining rebuild and start anew,
on a sunny April day, gathered
Presbyterians from Colombia and Presbyterians from the United States.
With agricultural implements
and symbols of faith,
a worship space was created;
prayers were said, songs were song,
love was shared.
I was there.
I remember the people.
I remember the time.
But until I saw this picture,
I had forgotten the purple flowers.
See you along the Trail.
Antonio has been found
Good news!
We have learned that Antonio Ariza has been found and is alive. We will post more information as we receive it.
Thank you so much to everyone for your outreach, advocacy and prayers.
Please continue to pray and act for God’s children who have been disappeared in Colombia and around the world.
See you along the Trail
