Giving Tuesday 2021
As an intentional counterpoint to the consumerist frenzy of Black Friday and Cyber Monday, Giving Tuesday is built around the concept of radical generosity. Echoing the Golden Rule of Christ Jesus, radical generosity is "the concept that the suffering of others should be as intolerable to us as our own." These are precisely my thoughts as I reflect upon the Holy Land, because the ongoing suffering of the Palestinian people is just that: intolerable. For this reason, we invite you to contribute to the ongoing work of Friends of Sabeel North America in our tireless efforts to serve as a Christian voice for Palestine.
During a time when Palestinian civil society is facing an unprecedented assault, we work in the hope that the people of North America might no longer tolerate the intolerable. In solidarity with all who cry out for justice, the Sabeel movement strives for a spirituality based in the liberating reign of Christ, centering values of justice, peace, nonviolence, liberation, and reconciliation. We promote a more accurate awareness of Palestinian Christians and the intolerable situation confronting all the people of Palestine. Be it of your time or treasure, please support the work of all who struggle for justice and peace in the Holy Land.
Many blessings,
Jesse Wheeler
Director of Development
