  The everyday lives of followers of Father Divine still balance two components of their communitarian and celibate tradition: the formality of structured living and the celebration of the freedom of the spirit. All co-workers, for example, adhere to a formal administrative structure of the various Peace Mission Churches and carry out set assigned duties whether working in the kitchen or taking care of some administrative matters.

  Peace Mission members still work to feed underprivileged city children and run a thrift store in downtown Philadelphia. They also support political campaigns that express Father Divine's ideas. Although traditionally conservative (many followers, for example, worked on Ross Perot's 1982 presidential campaign), the election of Barack Obama has been embraced as the ful?llment of Father Divine's teachings for a racially integrated and harmonious federal government. In another fascinating development, the Peace Mission has made friendships in the last decade with members of the local Pennsylvania Amish community, as well as the remaining Maine Shakers, establishing inter-religious conversations between the various American sectarian communities.
