The EMBERS community allows us to offer FREE peacemaking resources, like this upcoming webinar.
Over the past month, skin tones, nationalities, and perceived religious affiliations are the reasons being cited for the increase in hate crimes. American Muslims are bracing for the worst. American Jews are wondering if history is repeating itself. American Christians are living in the mixture of confusion, relief, and paralysis. Fear born out of misunderstanding, misinformation, and misperception is causing us to build walls rather than relationships.
Scaling those walls are courageous men, women, and students from all three traditions. Each are choosing to embody our common teaching of neighbor-love.
Set in the story of the relationship between a Muslim, a Jew, and a Christian, this webinar is designed to highlight the journey we all can and must take from stranger to acquaintance, acquaintance to friend, and friend to ally. As we listen to the story, laden with fear, insecurity, missteps, grace, trust, and dependency, we will all find ourselves equipped with practical tools to take a similar journey. As we do, the walls that have interrupted essential relationships will begin to crumble.
DATE: Sunday, December 18th 2016

#EMBERScommunity: The How of Peacemaking from The Global Immersion Project of San Diego, California, United States "Stories from the EMBERS community"
"Time seemed to stop when I met Ali Abu Awad. He and his family made us a tasty meal and offered an incredible vision of nonviolence. That moment changed my life...He said 'The only justice is when death is turned back into beautiful life'”.
