Peace Is Possible: Religious Peacemakers of the Holy Land
Session Description:
Meet the interfaith peacemakers of the Holy Land (Israel/Palestine): the Abrahamic Reunion! These women, men, and youth put their lives on the line to bridge communities, religions, ethnicities, and the conflict. The Abrahamic Reunion is a nonviolent, nonpolitical, interfaith approach to peacebuilding and community building, bringing thousands of Israelis and Palestinians together every year in dialogue, for dinners, traveling to each other’s sacred sites, for conferences, and trainings that are training the next wave of clergy, women, and youth to become cultural leaders in peace. Hear their stories, see video footage and photos, learn about this unique approach to peacebuilding, and pray with them, together, for peace in the Holy Land.
