Presbyterian Peace Fellowship

The Presbyterian Peace Fellowship (PPF) connects, equips, and supports people in the work of peacemaking and nonviolence through its Activist Council and Peace Churches. Present actions are focused on: 

It was started in the 1940s as a group that provided support to Conscientious Objectors to World War II, a war in which objection was quite unpopular. Since then it has continued to be a prophetic voice in the church, urging the abolition of war and encouraging sisters and brothers to enact peace in the midst of our broken world and helped lead the PC(USA) to take bold stances in the face of violence.
