Stories of peacemaking
About Tortugas
We are a group of women who have been meeting on a regular basis to share our spiritual journeys and our own stories of peacemaking. We have been using a book called Traveling with the Turtle, thus our name: Tortugas (Spanish for Turtles)
The stories you find here are ones we have collected from fellow women peacemakers. If you would like to submit your own story of working for peace or the story of a fellow female peacemaker, please email it to peacestories.tortugas @ gmail.com.
Thank you!
