The Living Stones: Peace, Reconciliation and the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem
Dates: October 14, 2016 to October 23, 2016

The ancient stones of this land have captivated adventurers, archaeologists, and pilgrims.

The sacred texts that shape our spiritual imagination are illuminated by an encounter with the ‘Fifth Gospel’, the land of the Holy One.

But the real treasures of the Church in this land are the living stones, the faithful women and men who live out their faith day by day in very challenging circumstances as a minority within a minority.

In this 10-day program you will visit selected sites in Israel, Palestine and Jordan to see the diversity and the vitality of the Anglican Church in this land of promise.

Highlights of the program include:

• 7 nights in Jerusalem
• 2 nights in Nazareth
• 1 night in Amman
• Princess Basma Center, East Jerusalem
• Holy Land Institute for the Deaf, Salt (Jordan)
• Ministry with Syrian refugees at St Paul’s, Ashrafiyeh (Amman)

Join us for this special program of pilgrimage, solidarity, and witness led by Fr Hosam Naoum, Dean of St George’s Cathedral, Jerusalem.

Dr Robert Heaney, Director of the Center for Anglican Communion Studies at Virginia Theological College will serve as a Visiting Professor for this program and help us to reflect on the significance of the Christian community in the Holy Land for the wider Anglican Communion.
