From the Presbyterian News Service:
International Peacemaker "the Rev. Joel Tendero has been a leader in the peacemaking ministry of the United Church of Christ in the Philippines for more than 20 years. His life has repeatedly been threatened by government-backed paramilitary groups for his activities. He is conference minister for the Northeast Southern Tagalog Conference of the UCCP, which has a partnership with Sacramento Presbytery of the PC(USA)."
Read an interview with Joel.
The International Peacemakers program is made possible by contributions to the Peacemaking Offering.
