Consistent Life Network

Consistent Life Network’s 30th anniversary conference is promising to be a unique, hands-on conference experience. The goal is for participants to come away with a better understanding of the connectedness of the life issues and specific ideas and tools to start advocating for the Consistent Life Ethic in their various communities (faith, geographic, organizational, etc.). And of course there will be plenty of time of networking and socializing.

Speakers include Shane Claiborne, cofounder of the Simple Way in Philadelphia, and a fierce advocate against the death penalty; John Carr, Director, Initiative on Catholic Social Thought and Public Life, Georgetown University; Joyce McCauley-Benner, Feminists for Life of America; Kristen Day, Executive Director, Democrats for Life of America; and Fr. David Link, a chaplain at the Indiana State Prison.

Workshop topics include: sex trafficking, restorative justice, messaging (especially on college campuses), different faith traditions, pacifism and the just war theory, and using stories. Skills workshops include fundraising and a "Conversation Café/World Café” training.
