Dear JPB Family and Friends,
The peoples of Israel and Palestine are grappling with the worst bloodshed, hunger, and crisis since 1948.
Please hold JPB's courageous teens, adult participants, and staff tightly in your hearts. They are risking everything to heal divides and build a new future for the Holy Lands.
In the same way, our mission remains steadfast: to advance peace and understanding by bringing Jews, Christians, and Muslims together. And Americans, Israeli Jews, and Palestinian Arabs are responding.
Sticking to our mission is paying off. Demand for our interfaith programs remains high, and Jerusalem Peacebuilders is preparing for a full slate of summer institutes. The teacher-training programs filled up within days of opening applications, and only a few spots remain for our youth institutes.
We will host youth institutes in Houston, TX, New Haven, CT, and Geneva, Switzerland, along with two EXCEL teacher-training institutes in Cambridge, England, and Derry, No. Ireland.
In the United States, invitations to preach and teach about JPB’s ministry of reconciliation continue unabated. We are also happy to share that our regular interfaith leadership trainings will resume in Houston schools during September.
Thank you for your enduring prayers and support. Because of you, JPB continues to be a trusted source of hope and encounter.
