Shedding Light on “Rebuilding and Reuniting” After Genocide
Please join the WCC and Brown Deer United Methodist Church for an evening with Rev. Julie Kandema, a Rwandan Peacemaker.
Rev. Julie Kandema is an ordained Minister from the Presbyterian Church in Rwanda. Since 2014 she has served as Vice President and deputy legal representative for the denomination. She leads the church program in charge of Church Growth supervising church activities related to evangelization, women and youth activities, deacons and Sunday School. She serves on a variety of commissions for peace building at the national and international levels. As Vice President of the Interfaith Platform for Dignity and Peace, she organizes inter-religious dialogues and other activities on peace and reconciliation. She looks forward to sharing with the Presbyterian Church (USA) her experience of the genocide against the Tutsi people of Rwanda in 1994. She will also share the efforts of the church in post-genocide Rwanda and the work done by different categories of people, particularly women and youth, to bring about true reconciliation and development in Rwanda.
We are grateful for the opportunity to cohost this event thanks to our partnership with the Presbytery of Milwaukee.
