Peace and Justice Education Event: Christ in the Rubble – A Liturgy of Lament from Bethlehem

7–8 p.m. on Zoom
Christmas Sermon by The Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac – Video and discussion
As the humanitarian catastrophe continues in Gaza, we can reflect on the provocative and compelling sermon delivered by the Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac from the birthplace of Jesus. Dr. Isaac challenges Christians to consider the true meaning of Christmas during which, arguably, a genocide of Palestinians is occurring in Gaza. He states, “Silence is complicity, and empty calls for peace without a ceasefire and end to occupation, and the shallow words of empathy without direct action—are all under the banner of complicity.” Join us for the video of Dr. Isaac’s sermon, followed by discussion. Hosted by Westminster’s Peace & Justice Work Group and Middle East Task Force.
