Spring 2006: Journeys of Reconciliation Class

What a great experience, co-teaching with my colleague and co-director Chris, a class on Journeys of Reconciliation, exploring with a group of 16 students the convictions at the heart of the Center for Reconciliation. For the first two months of the course, we were blessed with the gift of Bishop Macleord Baker Ochola, retired bishop of Kitgum, Northern Uganda. He brought to the class not only the gift of personal journey through faith, pain and hope, amidst the madness of the war in Northern Uganda, but a wealth of cultural idioms and stories through which to understand the journey of reconciliation.
