Avila University and the Buchanan Initiative for Peace and Nonviolence welcome you to join them at 2 p.m. CST on Wednesday, April 21 for a special bilingual Zoom conversation with 2017 Buchanan Initiative Activist in Residence Sr. Jeannette Londadjim as they discuss her recently published collection of essays, Chadian Sister Engages Kansas City Youth about Peace and Justice.
Chadian Sister is an intimate, emotional series of explorations of faith, social justice and community. Written before, during and after her three-month residency in Kansas City, Sr. Jeannette details how she connected with Avila students to discuss their aspirations and to encourage them to be “artisans of peace and justice.” Featuring an introduction by Carol Coburn, Professor Emerita of Women’s and Gender Studies at Avila, the book is a shining example of the power of the global CSJ family.
As a special bonus, the first 25 registrants will be eligible to receive a free copy of Chadian Sister Engages Kansas City Youth about Peace and Justice after the event.
