Regas Courageous Peacemaker Awards: Looking Back, Looking Forward: 25 Years of ICUJPICUJP exists because of an extraordinary peace advocate - the late Rev. George F. Regas. In the days after 9/11, the former rector of All Saints Episcopal Church, Pasadena brought together Buddhist, Christian, Islamic, Jewish, Quaker, and other faith leaders and activists in Los Angeles to oppose the forces pressing for war and its devastating consequences. In his honor, every year we have recognized the work of other Peace advocates through the George F. Regas Courageous Peacemaker Awards. Previous recipients have included Rev. Desmond Tutu, the Poor People’s Campaign, Black Lives Matter - Los Angeles, Rev. James Lawson, and the National Day Laborer Organizing Network.Join us for our 2026 George F.

When great activists and civic leaders such as Rev. James Lawson, Rabbi Leonard Beerman, Dr. Maher Hathout and many others came together under the vision of Rev. George Regas, the idea that “religious communities must stop blessing war and violence” was considered extreme and confrontational.Today, there is a new benchmark for being extreme and confrontational - our government and its leaders are actively working towards creating a Fascist America, with the benefit of weak and ineffective push back from the opposition. Every day brings a new political scandal, a new attack on democratic norms, a new reason to panic and just give up.But through all of it, one thing keeps us steady: our nation has seen much worse, and we will trumph again.We have endured and spead our message through very trying times - five Presidents, four California Governors, and numerous crises and issues that would shake the resolve of even the most devout and dedicated of activists. But through it all, we go forward in our mission to be the voice for "the least of these", and our determination to create the change we want to see in the world, no matter how vocal and effective the opposition can seem.For 25 years we have worked for justice and peace, and we don't plan on stopping anytime soon. As our chairperson Steve Rohde says, we are built for this, and we are in this work for the long term.ICUJP operates as a largely volunteer organization with a small part-time paid staff. We have survived for over twenty years through the generosity of individuals and organizations like you. We are honored to be with you in the struggle for Justice and Peace.There’s still a long road ahead. But if you’re here reading this, we’re already stronger than they want us to be.Thank you for being with us. Please consider helping ICUJP in its mission. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/pasadena/icujp-2026-regas-courageous-peacemaker-awards-looking-back-looking-forward/100001998517963026 - **Event Categories**: art, literary-art, black-lives-matter, spiritual - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours - Location: All Saints Episcopal Church - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 1000, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Pasadena - **state**: CA - **country**: United States - **location**: All Saints Episcopal Church - **lat**: 34.1478927 - **long**: -118.1424893 - **full address**: All Saints Episcopal Church, 132 North Euclid Avenue, Pasadena, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: ICUJP 2026 Regas Courageous Peacemaker Awards/Looking Back, Looking Forward - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events4/banners/232b69fd4586f2b7e76ebe3a79785e1c7df3f31d6ecaad945890d20fa1fcc02a-rimg-w1200-h675-dcc8e8f8-gmir.jpg?v=1787723232 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is ICUJP 2026 Regas Courageous Peacemaker Awards/Looking Back, Looking Forward being held? - **A:** ICUJP 2026 Regas Courageous Peacemaker Awards/Looking Back, Looking Forward takes place on Sun, 27 Sep, 2026 at 02:00 pm to Sun, 27 Sep, 2026 at 04:00 pm at All Saints Episcopal Church, 132 North Euclid Avenue, Pasadena, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing ICUJP 2026 Regas Courageous Peacemaker Awards/Looking Back, Looking Forward? - **A:** ICUJP 2026 Regas Courageous Peacemaker Awards/Looking Back, Looking Forward is organized by Interfaith Communities United for Justice and Peace. - **Q**: Who is this event for?

Clergy, laypeople, and community leaders met in a church basement and decided to rally around the slogan “Religious Communities Must Stop Blessing War and Violence.”Within a few months, dozens of religious and peace organizations responded to the call. Faith leaders and activists met every Friday morning to discuss issues and organize activities, calling themselvesInterfaith Communities United for Justice and Peace (ICUJP).Their goal: To find ways to create a culture of peace and help end the war system.That work has continued ever since. Every Friday morning, 15 to 25 people gather atImmanuel Presbyterian Churchin Los Angeles. Attendees include teachers, student organizers, lawyers, documentary filmmakers, writers, college professors, and faith leaders from a range of traditions. All of them are committed to four core principles:• the power of love to overcome hatred;• the power of mercy to conquer vengeance;• the celebration of our common humanity and the sacredness of human life;• and our calling to build a just, equitable, and peaceful world." } ] } ] ```
