The Rev. Dr. David W. Peters, founder of the Episcopal Veterans Fellowship and author of Post Traumatic God: How the Church Cares for People Who Have Been to Hell and Back, will host special events at Washington National Cathedral. Peters served as an enlisted Marine and Army Chaplain and was named in 2017 as one of five Fellows by the Episcopal Church Foundation.
The Episcopal Veterans Fellowship equips Christians for missional ministry to veterans through prayer, hospitality and reconciliation. EVF offers educational workshops, consulting and coaching so your Church can reach out with God’s love to the veterans who live in your community. Members of the Hospitallers of St. Martin, a new monastic Christian Community within the Episcopal Church, focuses on Prayer, Hospitality and Reconciliation for veterans and all those who have been affected by war, poverty and violence.
