SUMMARY:SPECIAL EVENT: Faith Forum on Peace in the Middle East
DESCRIPTION:Join us for a free and live virtual Conscientious Objectors’ Faith Forum on October 7 at 12 PM ET in honor of the lives lost on October 7 and since October 7.\n\nWe will be joined by people who refused to engage in the violence\, inviting us to ask the question\, “What does courage look like for me?” We welcome special guests from Israel and Palestine\, conscientious objectors who refused to fight for Hamas and for the Israeli military\, along with US veterans who became peacemakers. \n\nSofia Orr: Israeli conscientious objector who refused to serve in the IDF\nAhmed Helou: Former Hamas youth member who has lost over 80 family members to the war on Gaza\nJoy Metzler: U.S. conscientious objector and Airforce Academy graduate\, 2 LT\nDiana Oestreich: Peacemaker and former U.S. war veteran\n\nWhat better way to honor the lives lost on October 7th\, and since October 7th\, than by celebrating the courageous people who have refused to participate in the violence.  You will hear from modern day heroes for peace as they share their stories of why they choose not to participate in the escalating violence of war. And they will invite us to ask the question\, “What does courage look like — for me?”  \nThere is a rich history when it comes to conscientious objectors — people who refuse to fight in war because it violates their faith or conscience.  And in particular\, Christians who follow Jesus “the Prince of Peace\,” have been war resisters for centuries\, going back to the earliest days of Christianity.  Let’s take a moment to remember all the lives lost to war and rededicate ourselves to peace.  Violence only begets more violence.  We will not build a better world by killing each other’s children.   \nThis virtual event is sponsored by Red Letter Christians — and it is FREE and open to everyone. \nRegister to join here: RLC Faith Forum with Conscientious Objectors Registration – Zoom \nTo access additional resources for Conscientious Objectors\, click here.\n \nTo access additional resources for Conscientious Objectors\, click here.
