The purpose of the Palestine-Israel Justice Project (PIJP) is to educate individuals, congregations, and the denomination about actions that work toward peace and justice between Palestine and Israel. Members attempt to give a balanced view of true plight of both Israelis and Palestinians through a variety of programs, projects, actions, and conference resolutions.
As followers of Jesus, we are called to express our love for neighbor through acts of mercy and justice. Dr. Cornel West reminds us: “Never forget that justice is what love looks like in public”. In the Palestine Israel Justice Project, we envision a Holy Land where love and justice prevail for all of God's children.
The group meets the first Thursday of each month from 9:30 to 11 a.m, usually by Zoom. Contact the PIJP Chair if you have an interest in the group.
