The mission of the Peninsula
Clergy Network is to establish an interactive
network of all clergy in San Mateo and Northern Santa Clara
Counties
in order to build knowledge, understanding and working relationships.
PCN promotes increased interaction between religious and civic leaders and the communities they jointly serve.
Key to the success of the PCN is the creation of a database, unique in the country, of the Peninsula’s 440 clergy and 350 congregations.
The
PCN has transformed the professional relationships among the
region’s clergy and forged new relations between clergy
and other civic leaders. Through the PCN, clergy of all faiths
work with civic leaders in education, business, local government,
and social services to address issues of importance to our communities.
In this work, the PCN does not advocate, urge a particular
faith, or seek religious solutions to civic and secular issues.
Instead, the PCN provides the relationships and framework for
fostering awareness, understanding, and community engagement.
The Peninsula Clergy Network’s five
ongoing initiatives enhance:
- The tone of religious tolerance
- The
capacity and impact of interfaith collaboratives
- The engagement
of clergy and congregations in the community
- The access to
the faith sector by community partners
- Multifaith awareness in
public institutions and individual congregations
- Clergy effectiveness
and satisfaction
from The Magic of Dialogue
by Daniel Yankelovich
…when dialogue is
done skillfully, the results can be extraordinary: long-standing
stereotypes dissolved, mistrust overcome, mutual understanding achieved,
visions shaped and grounded in shared purpose, people previously
at odds with one another aligned on objectives and strategies, new
common ground discovered, new perspectives and insights gained, new
levels of creativity stimulated, and bonds of community strengthened.
