Woolman Peacemaking Forum – Portland, OR
February 25 @ 3:30 pm - 7:00 pm
FreeYou can attend in person or livestream the event! This panel features dedicated peacemakers who will explore the historical and political complexities behind the persistent unrest in the Middle East. Rooted in the Christian call to pursue peace and justice for all who bear the image of God, the discussion will highlight practical principles and practices of peacemaking. Attendees will gain valuable insights into how these principles can foster restoration and healing in seemingly irreconcilable global conflicts and their own personal and community relationships.
Following the panel, join Dr. Mansour as she explores the principle of bearing witness as a central practice of Christian peacemaking and an antidote to apathy, despair, and erasure that often plagues responses to prolonged injustice. She will draw from the lived realities of Palestinian Christians and the Biblical call to be peacemakers, in a talk that invites Christ followers to embrace their responsibility to advocate for justice, dignity, and peace across Israel-Palestine.
