Moral Monday CT to Palestine/Israel
Donation protected
Hey Family,
Pamela and I are about to set off on yet another adventure. I've been asked by our friends with The Tree of Life Educational Fund to co-lead a trip to Palestine/Israel. We will lead a small delegation of young adults, faith/community leaders from our community to join up with other travellers for an amazing immersion experience. The theme of this trip is "The Right of Return:70 years of Refugees in Palestine, Israel and Beyond". It will be an opportunity for travelers to reflect on how Islam and Christianity both speak to the condition of refugees (Jesus and Mohammed were themselves both refugees). It will also be an opportunity to learn about and to experience places sacred to Islam, Judaism, and Christianity, while also learning from the wisdom and expertise of fellow travelers. In addition, there will be an optional extension to Jordan, where we’ll have an opportunity to witness the refugee situation in a different country, while also visiting historic sites such as Petra and the Wadi Rum.
