Teach-In on the Islamic History of Israel/Palestine

On Sunday, December 17, 2023, All Saints Church hosted another opportunity to learn more about the challenges facing Israel/Palestine.
At 12:00 p.m. in the church, longtime All Saints Interfaith partner Salam Al-Marayati, president and co-founder of the Muslim Public Affairs Council, with four Muslim scholars, led us in a Teach-In on The Islamic History of Israel/Palestine. An understanding of the Islamic narrative to the discourse is important for effecting peacemaking efforts, both within the interfaith community and among our decision-makers.
