Life and leadership
The life and leadership of 约翰·珀金斯 has influenced many to have an enduring hope and vision for transformed communities. In this vision we are encouraged to cross ethnic, 种族, and socio-economic boundaries, share in each other’s story, and bear one another’s burdens. In the midst of diversity and ecumenism, we become aware of differences and how they offer an opportunity for the message of reconciliation to be lived in new and exciting ways.
Sharing in his legacy
Through the commitments of the 约翰·珀金斯 Center, SPU joins those leaders and 组织 in our 城市, 国家, 和世界 seeking to honor God’s creative diversity and model reconciliation. The 约翰·珀金斯 Center was created to institutionalize 西雅图 Pacific’s desire to always learn from and share with others the life and legacy of 约翰米. 珀金斯. We believe his life story, principles of community development, and ministry of reconciliation can help many participate and contribute to the health and wholeness of our campus, 城市, 和世界.
