SUMMARY:Solstice of Peace
DESCRIPTION:ZOOM LINK\n\nInfo about Solstice of Peace\, or Register an event for the Solstice of Peace! \n\nJoin Sheikh Ghassan Manasra\, David Less\, and the Abrahamic Reunion for a special peace event\, as part of the Solstice of Peace\, a global night of peace.\n\nMEDITATION ~ CHANTING ~ PRAYER ~ CONTEMPLATION\n\nThe Solstice Peace Project is calling for events around the world during the Solstice\, the longest night of the year in the Northern Hemisphere\, and shortest night in the Global South.\nINFO: https://solsticepeace.org/ \nCONTACT: Chris@abrahamicreunion.org \n\n\n\n\n\nSolstice Prayer Project\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nTo celebrate peace on the Dec. 22\, the Winter Solstice\, the day that heralds the return of the light in the Northern Hemisphere. The project would use the solstice  to prompt linked actions worldwide that encourage peace. \nThere is a heaviness touching the hearts of people worldwide.  It not just the wars in Europe\, the Middle East and Africa. It’s because we are connected on so many different levels and feel each other’s distress deeply. This is why we can lighten the world’s burden by praying for peace and performing actions – both symbolic and substantial in their hopefulness – to promote peace. We can emphasize the power of peace by focusing on peace and amplifying its impact by coming together to call for peace.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Roots\n\n\n\n\nThe Winter Solstice in the Northern Hemisphere is traditionally a time for welcoming back the light. Winter Solstice: honoring the Return of Light.   \nIt is also a time of specific observances in various religious traditions\, including Hannukah (Dec. 7-15 2023)\, Christmas (Dec. 25\, 2023)\, Bodhi Day (Dec. 8\, 2023) and Yalda Night (Dec. 20-21) in Iran and other parts of Central Asia.  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAction Needed\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThese actions would focus only on peace\, eschewing politics and the taking of sides.  \n\n\n\n\n1\n\n\n\n\nTo reach out to religious community leaders to ask for their support. To request religious leaders to encourage their congregations to hold services for peace on Dec. 22\, 2023.  As it is a Friday\, mosques and synagogues will be holding services anyway.  We would encourage the addition of a special Friday service for Christians and the holding of special services in Hindu and Buddhist temples and Sikh gurdwaras. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n2\n\n\n\n\nTo invite communities worldwide to hold an event promoting peace on Dec. 22\, the day that heralds the return of the light in the Northern Hemisphere. The event could take be in any form –  a religious service\, a concert\, a reading\, a moment of communal silence\, \n\n\n\n\n3\n\n\n\n\nTo encourage people to place a candle in their window to promote peace on the night of Dec. 21-21 as a symbol of the presence of peace and to encourage the promotion of peace. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nThe Goal\n\n\n\n\nTo ignite the light of peace in the hearts of participants and to encourage the spread of peace at a time of increasing conflict and violence.

SUMMARY:Online Iftar: "Breaking the Fast For Peace"
DESCRIPTION:Sunday\, April 7th\n11:15am EDT – 12:15pm EDT (6:15pm – 7:15pm Holy Land Time)\n\n\n\n\nOnline Iftar Featuring the Peacemakers\, a Multifaith Discussion of Fasting\, Ramadan\, the AR’s Iftar Events\, and Fasting together in Solidarity\n\nWith:\n\nSheikh Ghassan Manasra\nDavid Less\nAbdelsalam Manasra\nChris Miller\nReligious Leaders from all 3 faiths discussing Fasting (Speakers TBA)\nPhotos & stories from the AR’s 2024 Multifaith Iftar Events in the Holy Land!\nBreaking the Fast together — bring dates & water\n\nBreaking the Fast of Separation — Fasting  \nWe invite you to join in fasting – for however long is right for you. Fasting is a sacred practice in the Abrahamic Faith traditions\, which will be explored and discussed at our online program. In the Holy Land\, the Ramadan fast is 14 hrs long\, so\, after dinner in the US\, if you refrain from eating or drinking\, and skip breakfast\, you can break the fast with us having fasted about the same amount of time. \n\nRamadan Fast Times:\n\nJerusalem: 4:51am – 7:10pm (14hrs\, 19min)\nSarasota: 6:07am – 7:52pm (13hrs\, 45min)\n14hrs prior to 12:10pm EDT = 10:10pm EDT.\n\n\n\nWhat to bring: Dates & Water \nWhether or not you are fasting\, you are invited to bring water and dried dates for the symbolic breaking of the fast\, together. Dates and water are commonly the first items consumed to break the fast in the Holy Land\, providing much needed hydration\, and a burst of sugars to reanimate the organs of the body. \nFasting is a way to be in connection with the Abrahamic connections to fasting\, and to be in connection with those who don’t have enough food to eat\, who are fasting because of famine\, starvation\, lack of aid\, etc\, as in Gaza and in many places around the world. \nThe practice of fasting is traditionally seen as a way of becoming closer to God\, to the spirit\, and further from materiality\, corporeality. It is a practice seen in many traditions outside the Abrahamic Faiths as well\, a a means of purification of body\, mind\, and heart. \n(Muslims outside the Holy Land – we will be symbolically breaking the fast at the Iftar time in the Holy Land\, so of course\, we understand you won’t break fast with us together.)

SUMMARY:Interfaith Peace Concert in Tel Aviv
DESCRIPTION:Interfaith Peace Concert in Tel Aviv \nNext month\, on the 9th of October\, we have a very important meeting in Tel Aviv\, in Neve Schechter\, with the Conservative Jewish groups. We will have all the people together – Muslims\, Christians\, Jews\, and Druze. They will come together for a “Melody Meeting.” \nWe will have very professional people with us\, to help heal the people\, to help the people be very aware and very clean people\, how to connect with “the other”. \nWe need to break the ice between the people because the fear stops them. The fear is the very hard barrier between the people. We need to break the ice and to bring them together. \nThis meeting will be spiritual songs\, and singers\, lecturers\, psychologists\, sociologists\, cultural people\, they will come together. \n \n  \nRevisit the Interfaith Music Event from September 2023\, similar to the upcoming October event. \n(Event Photos or Click on the Video) \n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nFrom Sheikh Ghassan: \n“The Program of the Melody: Smile\, Listen\, and Meet Again”\nThis will be a meeting to break the ice\, because the situation is very difficult all the time. Professor Avi and Ghassan spoke with the people and convinced them come together after a big break in the connection. The problems are not only between the Arabs and the Jews – it’s between the Arabs inside the Arab Society\, and the Jews within the Jewish Society. \nThen we will bring these people together. We will use the spiritual melodies to move their inner sides for soften them\, and soften their hearts\, and after that\, they will come to meet and talk\, and remember that they know one another\, they met before\, and still they are together on the same land\, area\, land\, the same tent\, the tent of Abraham. \nThe leaders will talk and share prayers also\, and give directions to the people about how to stay in connection after this meeting. This meeting will be the gate for the future\, the gate for the Day After The War. This is the beginning of what will happen later\, and how can we use ourselves as tools to stop the war\, to try to stop the war. We know there is craziness in the air\, in the field\, but when we have some craziness we need to get our responsibility to heal the situation. The situation needs some healing\, but we need to work with that. It’s not easy for all the people. \nBy the way Anat Lev Or\, Sheikh Khalid Abu Ras\, Rabbi Roberto Arbib\, Siham Halabi (AR Israel Board Members) many will be with us – also many people who lost part of their families will be there\, because they believe in peace\, and they tried to create a different situation\, not to go to the clash\, the clash will not bring any peace\, clash will bring clash\, but peace will bring peace. \nThe event will cost the Abrahamic Reunion more than $5\,000 just for our part (hard costs)\, Neve Schechter will cover part as cosponsor. To eat one shawarma sandwich today\, in Tel Aviv\, it will cost you $20. And we hope we will have 200 people with us\, 50 people from East Jerusalem will be with us. I will fly to be part of this important event and others. We need your support. \nThank you\, peace\, salam\, shalom. \nSheikh Ghassan Manasra \nAR International Director \nghassan@abrahamicreunion.org
