Annual Meeting workshop of the day: Kairos Palestine After decades of occupation, Palestinian Christians came together to write “Kairos Palestine Document: A Moment of Truth: a Word of faith, hope, and love from the heart of Palestinian suffering” to tell the world about what is happening in their land and calling Christians to stand with them in search of peace and justice. In this workshop we will use a study document, “Kairos USA: Call to Action,” to talk about how our churches might respond to our sisters and brothers in Palestine. The Southwest Association has had a partnership with Christmas Lutheran Church in Bethlehem since 2004; their pastor, Rev. Mitri Raheb, was one of the presenters at the 2010 Annual Meeting. Rev. Mitri is one of the authors of Kairos Palestine. Presented by Phil Haslanger, Nancy Baumgardner, and Bonnie Van Overbeke, who are members of Southwest Association Bethlehem Partnership Committee and Memorial UCC, Fitchburg.
