World Week for Peace in Palestine Israel 2012–Resources available

by Global Ministries | published on Oct 10, 2014

Easter peace and greetings to you. Many thanks to you again for your interest in and support for World Week for Peace in Palestine Israel 2012, as we stand in solidarity with the Palestinian people in their call for an end to the Israeli occupation and a just peace for all in Palestine and Israel.

With the start of the Week just six weeks away (28 May – 3 June 2012), we wish to share with you the following resources that have just been made available:

Jerusalem Prayer, written for the Week by the Christian Churches in Jerusalem
Worship Liturgy “Come and See,” prepared for the Week by Palestinian Christian theologians (You are welcome to reformat this worship liturgy, use only parts or it, or restructure the liturgy to best suit the needs of your worshipping community.)
An invitation to send a prayer to the Palestinian Christian community
Advocacy brochures produced by the UK WWPPI working group and the United Church in Canada

These new resources will be posted on the Resource page of our website, which is being updated regularly. Links to these resources, as well as other news and information about the Week, may also be found at our Facebook group page.
