Your opportunity to further the cause of peace with justice

Our Mission

Founded in Wilmington in 1967, Pacem in Terris (Latin for "peace on Earth") strives to facilitate the active participation of people and organizations on the Delmarva Peninsula, especially the religious community, on issues and projects relevant to the quest for peace, justice, and sustainability throughout the world. We seek to change attitudes and actions and to help people understand that peace is a necessity, now and in the future.
