Unity Prayer for the Holy Land (Online) – All Female Prayer Leaders
June 3, 2020 @ 11:00 am - 11:30 am
Unity Prayer Online
with Female Peacemakers of the Holy Land
Featuring prayer and moderation from: Siham Halabi, Sheikha Laila Muhammad Hashem Baghdadi Manasra, Rabbanit Surale Rosen, Hanan Shahan, Doris Hani Thiab, Zeynab Manasra Khatib, and Rabbi Dalia Shakham
Wednesday June 3rd, 11am EDT, 4pm London, 6pm Israel Time
The Holy Land is no stranger to all manner of suffering. In response to this particularly difficult time, the Abrahamic Reunion will be drawing together—virtually—those women and men who have dedicated their lives to creating peace and understanding in their homeland.
Even when group prayer is virtual, people who pray together have a powerful effect. This is true not only for Israel and Palestine, but throughout the world. Many people think there will never be peace in the Holy Land, just as many believe we will never have peace throughout the world. But 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 30 minutes of prayer.
These meetings will begin at 6:00 pm in the Holy Land, which is 4 pm in London, and 11 am EDT.
David Less, AR Board Chairman, and Sheikh Ghassan Manasra, AR International Director, will virtually host on-site Muslim, Jewish, Christian, and Druze prayer leaders as well as one spiritual musician in the Holy Land.
Please join us. The addition of your prayer energy will help build the change we all seek.
Peace, Salaam, Shalom
