The 4th International Sabeel Young Adult Conference Begins Today!

This evening 38 young adult conference members arrived at the Knight's Palace in the Old City of Jerusalem for Orientation. Our participants include 8 local Palestinian Christians and 30 internationals from the United States, Canada, South Korea, Sweden, Norway, and the Netherlands.

For the next 10 days, these participants will be traveling around Jerusalem, the West Bank, and the Galilee in order to learn about the Palestinian Christian population of these areas and the challenges they face under Israeli Occupation in the West Bank or as a marginalized people in Israel.

This blog will be updated daily with summaries of the conference day and reflections on the day from participants.

To keep in touch with Sabeel staff and participants during their journey, feel free to leave a comment on the blog!
