Pax Christi/Baltimore, the local Chapter of Pax Christi
USA, began activity in Baltimore in November, 1985. Since that time, the
Chapter consistently has presented events, programs, and observances focusing
on the spiritual dimensions of taking action for a better world, in the
context of the broad scope of Catholic Church social teaching.

WE HAVE A NEW PAX CHRISTI USA EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Our longtime Pax Christi USA Executive Director Dave Robinson left earlier in the year to pursue other interests, and we can't say enough about the time he has given to our organization and the commitment he has shown in so many ways. Since his departure the National Council has been on a search for a new Executive Director.
Last month the National Council completed its search, so we have a new director beginning on November 1. She's Sr. Patricia Chappell, SNDdeN. If you would like to send notes of welcome, you can direct them to pchappell.pcusa @ gmail.com, or to the National Office which is now in Washington, DC: Pax Christi USA, 1225 Otis St. NE, Washington, DC 20017.
Sr. Chappell is a member of the Sisters of Notre Dame de Namur, Connecticut unit, and served on the Provincial Leadership Team. She holds a Master's degree in Social Work from Catholic U. She serves as the national co-chair on her community's anti-racism team. She was the full-time president of the National Black Sisters' Conference (1996-2001) and is on the Board of Trustees for Trinity College University. Welcome, Sr. Particia!
