PLEASE PASS ON TO OUR ASSORTED "NETWORKS" AND PLEASE COME OURSELVES!
This (Palm/Passion) Sunday, April (Fools) First, LISA STILLER brings her
slides and reflections from the "Compassionate Listening" project trip
she took to Israel and Palestine -- to discover and document the extent
of peace work and public dialogue going on there all the time -- yet
getting lost in reports of intractable conflict and violence. LISA will
make a shorter presentation between worship services at 9 AM and a
longer presentation following 10 AM worship (about 11:15) in the Parlor,
First United Methodist Church, 209 W. First. Validate parking in
Parking Gallery, First & Siena.
We remember on this day of Jesus' nonviolent demonstration of resistance
to invasion and occupation -- of mind, body and spirit! -- Archbishop
Oscar Romero -- assassinated offering mass the Monday of Holy Week,
1980, for his prophetic resistance to war and oppression in El Salvador
-- and Martin Luther King, Jr., -- who's sermon "Beyond Vietnam"
signaled his resistance to the war itself and to the "dividing and
conquering" of movements for justice along lines of self-interest was
delivered in Riverside Church forty years ago this week -- April 4, 1967
-- and reads as if it were given just yesterday!
Thanks to and for and with ALL! Love, John Auer, 322-4564, 322-2013
