Join the Abrahamic Reunion for an hour of connection with courageous peacebuilders and spiritual luminaries from Palestine and Israel, who will share prayers, inspiration, and reflections on the theme of giving and generosity.
Group prayer has a powerful effect. This is true not only for Israel and Palestine, but throughout the world. Communal prayer and meditation, with a focus on the common good, can create the shift in consciousness that we all seek.
At each Online Unity Prayer for the Holy Land, religious leaders and holy peacemakers in Israel and Palestine will join together on zoom and lead 45 minutes of prayer in the spirit of interconnection and peace.
David Less, AR Board Chairman, and Sheikh Ghassan Manasra, AR International Director host each Unity Prayer’s Muslim, Jewish, Christian, and Druze prayer leaders – women, men, and youth.
Please join us. The addition of your prayer energy will help build the change we all seek.
Peace, Salaam, Shalom
