PROJECTS 2009 to 2012: WORLD MISSION COUNCIL - INTERFAITH SUPPORT - ISRAEL/PALESTINE

Background

The Guild's theme for 2009-2012 presents Christians everywhere with one of the most fundamental challenges for the application of their faith.

Over the years, the WMC has encountered this challenge as it has worked with Christian churches in, for example, India, the Caribbean and in Africa. Today it meets this challenge directly in its work in Israel and Palestine.

As the prospect of some resolution of the conflict in the region ebbs and flows, it becomes ever more necessary to support those who refuse to accept the inevitability of conflict, and the impossibility of any reconciliation.

Through its contacts with the Christian, Jewish and Muslim communities in Israel and Palestine, the World Mission Council offers the Guild an opportunity to support the work of Reconciliation, by helping it to become better informed, by making available ways of providing support, and by offering to assist Guild members to visit and meet those involved in the Projects.

For more information about the World Mission project, email Fiona Punton, information officer.
