Was your trip to El Salvador fun? It was transformative!

On Sunday, July 15, Angela Smith gave a powerful presentation to more than 50 members of the LaSalle County Episcopal Ministry regarding her work and ongoing efforts in El Salvador.

You may know that Angie traveled to El Salvador in March as an international election observer -- while there, she did more than just watch an election. For more on her time in El Salvador check out her piece published by Waging Nonviolence at http://wagingnonviolence.org/2012/04/from-arms-to-occupation-in-el-salvador/.

In the months since returning, she has been working with Father Jesus Alvarenga and Bishop Martin Barahona to share the story of the church's work within the urban centers of El Salvador.

If you are interested in having Angie share this story with your church, civic club or social organization let us know.

 

Full Disclosure: Angie and I have been married "almost" 18 years. She inspires many with her devotion to peace and justice for the people of Latin America, where she has traveled and worked since 2005.
