La Convivencia, an Introduction

What Does La Convivencia Mean?

For the past year, I have had the privilege of partnering with La Convivencia in a variety of ways. One of my favorite things about this organization is their love and passion for justice, and their desire to build bridges between the different faiths represented in our communities.  — Pastor Sammy Arroyo, First United Methodist Church of Hightstown
