Kairos Puget Sound Coalition Planning Conference: No Way to Treat a Child
Planning conference– an essential annual event to focus the Coalition’s thinking and effort, currently centered around the “No Way To Treat A Child” national campaign. The conference is being organized by the Kairos Puget Sound Coalition, a congregationally-based network working for justice and peace in Palestine/Israel and is affiliated with Christian churches and organizations located in the greater Seattle area. These organizations are responding to the plea of Palestinian Christians to end their oppression.
In 2009, Palestinian Christians wrote the document Kairos Palestine: “A Moment of Truth”, in faithful resistance to the oppression and dispossession of their people. It expresses faith, hope and love from the heart of Palestinian suffering.
Conference Focus:
- To awaken the church community and civil society to the gross violation of the human rights of incarcerated Palestinian children in Israeli prisons.
- To encourage advocacy by participants on behalf of these children, and
- To provide resources supporting advocacy efforts.
