Dear Friends and Family of our recent IFPB delegates,
I hope you have enjoyed the trip reports from Israel/Palestine filed by the Interfaith Peace-Builders and National Peace Foundation delegation. The delegation returned safely this weekend so this message will conclude the trip reports sent over this listerve.
I would like to invite you to join Interfaith Peace-Builders’ regular low-volume listserve by replying to this message or sending an email to ifpb-friendsnetwork-subscribe@lists.riseup.net.
This listserve will provide you with information on upcoming IFPB delegations and other programs, periodic opportunities to take action, and reports from further IFPB delegations. Messages number no more than 1 per week and you can unsubscribe at any time.
If you choose not so subscribe, you will receive only one further message from us in about a month. This message will detail the follow-up work which your friends and family on the delegation have engaged in upon their return home.
We here at IFPB are very proud of the significant scope of relevant issues the delegation was able to explore through this journey, ranging from the status of Jerusalem, to the role of the Palestinian refugees, the effect of homemade missiles raining down on the Israeli communities of Sderot and the Ashkelon area, and the responses of many to President Obama’s landmark speech in Cairo. The text of their reports along with photos are available here and delegate David Ehrens has posted further reflections here.
If you too were impressed by the scope and depth of the delegation experience, please consider supporting the work of Interfaith Peace-Builders with a small donation at www.ifpb.org.
IFPB’s work is only possible because of the support of hundreds of committed people across the continent. We hope you will join us by donating and/or joining an upcoming IFPB delegation to Israel/Palestine.
Thank you very much for sharing this delegation experience with us as we work together for a just peace in Israel/Palestine.
Sincerely,
Jacob Pace
