Christians in the Holy Land: Part 3

Join us for a webinar

The Association of US Catholic Priests (AUSCP) is sponsoring a four-part webinar on Christians in the Holy Land. FOSNA is honored to be co-hosting Christians in the Holy Land: Part 3 on Thursday April 28th at 1:00 PM EST.

This session will focus on the daily lives of Palestinian Christians living under occupation in Israeli-Palestine today with a special focus on the challenges Palestinian youth face, their hopes for the future, and how the Church in the USA can respond in solidarity. Three Palestinian Christians will be joining us to share their perspective:

  • Fr. Firas Abed a young Catholic priest in Ramallah who has been involved with the Palestinian youth movement,

  • Nadine Bitar who has volunteered with Sabeel Jerusalem and is currently the General Secretariate of Christian Youth in Palestine, and

  • Dina Nassar who is the lead Catholic Relief Services’ lead Technical Advisor for the COVID-19 Emergency Response in the West Bank and Gaza.

Their voices offer a fresh perspective on the struggle for justice in the Holy Land, the hopes of young people for their future, and the role of faith and the Church in this process. This will be a lively conversation you won’t want to miss. Hosted by FOSNA's Marie-Claire Klassen and presented by Sir Jeffery Abood.
