Shalom Center for Continuing Education
The Shalom Center is a non-profit educational center which provides opportunities for holistic education in areas of social, economic, cultural, ecological, ethical, and theological importance on behalf of shalom (wholeness, health, and peace). Shalom seeks to engage residents of Pleasant Hill and beyond in a lifelong learning process that is inclusive, imaginative, and celebratory, and which recognizes the integrity of creation and the unity of its inhabitants. The Shalom Center is not part of PHCC, but many of its board members are church members. In addition, PHCC supports Shalom through a yearly offering, and the Center's topics dovetail with interests and issues supported by the church. Shalom recently hosted the Interfaith Amigos (for the second time) who spoke about interfaith dialogue and their new book, "Religion Gone Astray." In January, Rev. Dan Romero of The Daniel F. Romero Border Ministries spoke about border and immigration issues from various perspectives. Both visits were a series of weekend seminars.
