PeaceFest: Forging Peace & Cultivating Justice is coming to Lititz this September, bringing together five local Church of the Brethren congregations for a family-friendly event focused on peace and justice. The day will feature author and activist Shane Claiborne, local musicians, children’s activities, a volunteer fair and a canned food drive.

The event will also feature live blacksmithing demonstrations, where artists will transform guns into gardening tools and jewelry as a symbol of turning violence into something constructive. On The Spark, we’ll talk with Pastor Jim Grossnickle-Batterton and Rebekah Priest about the event, the Church of the Brethren’s history as a peace church and the effort to build a culture of peace in local communities. Learn more about PeaceFest through the event’s official information and schedule.
