June 13 — The Palestinian-Israeli Conflict

"The Palestinian-Israeli Conflict: A Dialogue Between Two Eyewitnesses"
Unitarian Universalist Principles call us to affirm the inherent worth and dignity of every person, and the goal of world community with peace, liberty, and justice for all. How do we apply these principles in the Palestinian-Israeli conflict? Hear two eyewitness reports on how things look on the ground in Palestine/Israel from two different faith traditions.

PRESENTERS: Eileen Durgin-Clinchard and Rhonda Brubacher

Lincoln Unitarian Eileen Durgin-Clinchard will describe how meeting with both Israelis and Palestinians on a UU tour last October changed her view of the conflict. Rhonda Brubacher, from the First Mennonite Church, will share what she learned spending several years living and working near Jerusalem at the Tantur Ecumenical Institute for Theological Studies.
