Bending the Arc references a quote by Rev. Dr. King who said, “The arc of the moral universe is long, but it bends toward justice.” This digital newsletter from the CSA Justice, Peace, and Integrity of Creation office showcases the work of changemakers, opportunities to learn, and opportunities for you to help “bend the arc” toward justice.

Building a Culture of Active Nonviolence
May 29, 2025
You’re invited to a webinar hosted by the Franciscan Action Network and Pace e Bene
What Can We Do? The Top 10 Effective Nonviolent Actions to Meet This Moment
Wednesday, June 4 at 3 PM CT (Registration is Closed)
Nonviolence experts Maria Stephan and Rivera Sun will explore ten proven approaches to nonviolent action. They'll offer insight into how these strategies can be used effectively in our time.
This event is free, but donations are welcome to support the shared mission of FAN and Pace e Bene of education and peacebuilding.
There were two campaigns mentioned during the webinar:
- Pace e Bene’s Rise and Shine Campaign, which equips individuals and communities to build a culture of active nonviolence
- Franciscan Action Network’s Christians for Ceasefire and Just Peace Campaign, which lifts up the moral voice of Christians in calling for peace and an end to violence
Recordings of both webinars in this series are available. Share them widely!
