BETHLEHEM TODAY
A powerful talk and slide show by a Palestinian Christian from Bethlehem
Portland Central Library
801 Southwest 10th Avenue (at SW Yamhill)
Wednesday, December 16
5:30 to 7:30 pm
Palestinian Christians from Bethlehem and Nazareth will give a powerful presentation and slide show about "Bethlehem Today." We know that many people are enormously busy with work, shopping, and Christmas festivities, but we hope people will take time out to learn first-hand about the land where this all began and what is happening to it now. Please tell others about the event! (flyer attached)
Americans give Israel $7 million per day -- more than to any other country on earth. As we sing about "little town of Bethlehem," joy to the world," and "peace on earth," it seems appropriate to participate in an informed discussion about this town, region, and what can be done to bring peace.
Also participating will be Rev. Dick Toll, founder of Friends of Sabeel--North America (www.fosna.org), who has just returned from Bethlehem, and Alison Weir, founder of If Americans Knew (www.IfAmericansKnew.org), an independent journalist who has traveled throughout the region.
