Who We Are

Welcome to the Justice and Peace Action Team – Greater Kansas City

We’re here to help you live out Christ’s vision for a peaceable Kingdom. Inspired by Doctrine and Covenants 163:3b:

“Above all else, strive to be faithful to Christ’s vision of the peaceable Kingdom of God on earth. Courageously challenge cultural, political, and religious trends that are contrary to the reconciling and restoring purposes of God. Pursue peace.”

Our team connects you to educational opportunities, social justice activities, and community conversations happening across the Greater Kansas City area.

Rooted in the Enduring Principles and Mission Initiatives of Community of Christ, we aim to foster communities that reflect God’s love, justice, and Shalom. As Doctrine and Covenants 165:1b, e reminds us:

“Boldly follow the initiatives into the heart of God’s vision… shape communities that live Christ’s love and mission… let nothing separate you from this mission.”

Join us. Explore. Learn. Act. Together, we can embody God’s reconciling and restoring purposes for our community and the world.
