St. Paul's United Church will be hosting Christian Peacemaker Team member, James Loney, as he tells his story of being held hostage in Iraq tomorrow.

James Loney, a living witness for non-violent social action, is an inspiring and thought-provoking speaker. James, along

with his other team members (one of whom was killed during their captivity) held to their practice of nonviolence, even as they thought about trying to escape.

His talk will begin at 2 p. m.

Call 326-7351 and ask for Rev. Monica Moore for more information. A freewill offering will be accepted.
