Description
Father Elias Chacour, Archbishop of the Melkite (ancient Christian) Church in Israel, will be available for conversation, questions and answers following his message during daily Chapel. Speaking from first-hand knowledge of the details behind the Arab Israeli conflict, Chacour brings the faithful message of a Palestinian Christian working for peace in Israel.
He is increasingly invited by many church and non-government organizations working for peace to speak about efforts to encourage peaceful co-existence between diverse cultural and religious groups in the Holy Land. Father Chacour is recognized as an international voice for building peace among the children of Abraham: Christians, Jews and Muslims.
