Peace Speech Competition

Wednesday, March 12, 2014 4:30 pm - 5:30 pm EDT (GMT -04:00)

The word Peace in a speech bubble
Join us to hear another rousing round of Peace Speeches! Each year, Grebel hosts the C. Henry Smith Peace Oratirical Contest, which is administrated by Mennonite Central Committee (MCC).

Students will give speeches on the theme of the application of the Christian peace position to contemporary concerns. These speeches will occur as part of Grebel's weekly chapel service. Any student enrolled in the PACS program or are residents or associates of the college are eligible to participate. The top three winners will get cash prizes of $250, $100, and $50. After participating in Grebel's competition, the first place speech will be sent to the bi-national contest to compete with speeches written by students across North America.

So come on out and here what our students have to say about peace! More information about the contest on the C. Henry Smith Peace Oratorical Contest Page.
