Colombia Mission Network Webinar

From Rev. Sarah Henken, PC(USA) Mission Co-Worker in Colombia

Dear friends in the Colombia Mission Network, 

Blessings and peace! It’s been a while since we’ve connected so I wanted to let you know that a small committee from PCUSA partnership groups (Christine Caton and Alison Wood from PPF and the accompaniment program, Larry Hollar from Miami Valley, and Doug Early from Seattle) has been meeting and in conversation with representatives from the IPC. 

We are pleased to announce there will be a webinar this coming Monday, August 10, at 7pm eastern (6pm Colombia/central, 4pm pacific). We will send the link and details for connecting in a later email but wanted to let you know so you can put this on your calendars. 

The topic of the webinar is “Challenges and opportunities for peace and social justice with the churches in Colombia and the USA.” Rev. Diego Higuita will present from the perspective of the IPC and Revs. Eliana Maxim and Emily Brewer will present from the PCUSA, followed by time for discussion and Q&A. 

We hope you will join us! Interpretation will be provided in hopes that all participants will be able to understand and engage fully with the content. 

We also want to let you know that August is the IPC’s anniversary month, celebrating 164 years of Presbyterian worship and witness in Colombia! There is a series of online events scheduled by the IPC which will be broadcast in numerous formats including on the IPC’s Facebook page: https://www.facebook.com/IglesiaPresbiterianaColombia/ 

These IPC events will be presented in Spanish, but I plan to provide interpretation into English for anyone who needs it. This evening that will be via Zoom, information below, and future links to follow. 

Here is the schedule, Colombia time (eastern time one hour later, pacific two hours earlier):

  • Wednesday, Aug 5, 6pm Colombia: Presbyterian women working for peace

  • Sunday, Aug 9, 10am Colombia: Joint worship service, Rev. Valdir França preaching
