A couple of photos from last month’s 2025 Pax Christi Conference, Reclaiming the power of nonviolence in a broken world. These images capture joyful moments with Katherine Wojtan, our Executive Director, and some of the incredible and loyal supporters who make our work possible. As a grassroots organization, we’re grateful for every opportunity to connect in person with our Mary’s Pence community.
Katherine and Nancy Sylvester, former Mary’s Pence board member. Nancy is the founder and director of the Institute for Communal Contemplation and Dialogue in Michigan.
Katherine met with Mary Ellen Neill and her husband, who have been donors for 17 years. They attended the 2025 Pax Christi Conference and stopped by the Mary’s Pence booth to say ‘Hi’ with their granddaughter, Mary Steiner.
Bernardette Powell, one of Mary’s Pence most loyal and longtime supporters. She’s been a donor for 36 years. Chatting with Katherine at the Mary’s Pence booth.

Thank you for your years of supporting women!
