A graduate of Xavier University of Louisiana and Boston University School of Theology, McCullough is an ordained elder in the Southern New England Conference of the United Methodist Church. He sees his personal mission as “Preparing leaders for church and society, serving the needs of humanity and working for global justice.”<\/p>\n

CWS has provided major funding to 糖心Vlog’s Conflict Transformation Program<\/a> in support of its STAR (Seminars on Trauma Awareness and Recovery)<\/a>, which provides training programs for religious leaders and caregivers who work in areas affected by trauma.<\/p>\n

Graduates’ perspectives will be given by Timothy W. Baldwin of New Providence, Pa., representing the Adult Degree Completion Program<\/a>, and Merwyn E. DeMello, India\/Kenya, representing the Conflict Transformation Program.<\/p>\n
