Members and Friends of Austin Mennonite Church
I pray you are refreshed in your journey of faith.
*We welcome Mr. Zoughbi Zoughbi* as our special guest on Sunday. Mr.
Zoughbi is a Palestinian Christian living in Bethlehem, State of
Palestine, West Bank. Mr. Zoughbi is the founding director of the Wi'am
Palestinian Conflict Resolution Center
<http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Wi%27am_Palestinian_Conflict_Resolution_Center>.
Wi’am (Arabic for cordial relationship) focuses on the building of
relationships, cross-community bridges, and the arms of dialogue rather
than the dialogue of arms. Mr. Zoughbi earned a M.A. in Peace Studies at
Notre Dame University in Indiana. He has also participated in workshops
through the Jerusalem Arbitration Center
<http://www.sourcewatch.org/index.php?title=Jerusalem_Arbitration_Center&action=edit>.
These workshops are held in an effort to promote peace between
Palestinian and Israeli communities. Mr. Zoughbi believes that "warm"
peace between peoples will guarantee an enduring peace. Mr. Zoughbi will
also speak with us informally during the 11a study time. All persons are
welcome to join us.
May it go well with you. Sincerely,
Garland Robertson
