About Justice, Peace and Reconciliation

The PCEA Justice, Peace and Reconciliation Committees have been created to promote justice, peace and reconciliation in our communities. They will also assist and encourage the members of the Church and the followers of Christ to become reconciliator, defenders of justice, truth, sanctity if life and human rights and dignity. They will sensitise the congregations to speak out against any misuse of public resources, economic and political power to suppress the rights of the people r to oppress them.

The Justice, Peace and Reconciliation Committees will educate and encourage the members of the Church to become the “salt and light” in the fight against ignorance, superstition, disease, intimidation and other social problems, using God’s word and commandments as a guide.

The group is founded on God’s Word from Romans 12:11-13 Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord. Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer. Share with the Lord’s people who are in need. Practice hospitality

My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge.

Hosea 4:6
