1. What do you think it means to be a peacemaker?
We think that being a peace maker means to build and to mend relationships. We also think that a peacemaker is a person who spreads joy.

We think that the most challenging part of being a peacemaker is having to not strike back if you have been insulted or hurt by someone.

We think that Jesus means as children we are more prone to being peacemakers because it is our first feeling as a child.
