Sabeel's Young Adult Conference

Just as a bit of context, and because I'm sure that the posts will get longer as the conference starts up, here is a bit of information about the conference itself.

Sabeel is an organization based in Jerusalem, but with "Friends of Sabeel" groups across the world. They say, about the conference:

Every year Sabeel holds an international young adult conference that brings together young Christians from around the world to be with us and engage with people of this land and learn about the realities of life under occupation. This conference continues to be a truly effective example of grass-roots education and a tool for developing Christian fellowship. It also provides participants a first-hand experience with the issues at the heart of the conflict and allows them the chance to reflect with one another in organized debriefing sessions and bible studies.

And that, in a nutshell, is a pretty good summary of what we did. Stay tuned for future posts that go into some of the details.
