The Indonesia Initiative seeks to connect communities of conscience between the U.S. and Indonesia to provide opportunities for conscientious service. Building mutual friendships requires entering other worlds - worlds very different from our own and finding our common humanity. We are building friendships among people in Indonesia and the US. We work with human rights defenders, conflict "refugees," and teachers of young children in East Aceh, Tamiang & North Sumatra who do not support violence & war and do not take sides. We share a faith... across religion, class & culture ...in the power of a Living Spirit to give life, joy, peace, and prosperity through love, integrity and compassionate justice among people who live in simplicity and equality. We call this our real work - seeking to live with clear consciences and to connect communities of conscience.
