WE REFUSE TO BE ENEMIES
OUR CONVERSATION WITH DAOUD NASSAR, PALESTINIAN CHRISTIAN FARMER AND DIRECTOR OF THE TENT OF NATIONS.
OUR CONVERSATION WITH DAOUD NASSAR, PALESTINIAN CHRISTIAN FARMER AND DIRECTOR OF THE TENT OF NATIONS.
Our conversation with Daoud Nassar, Palestinian Christian farmer and Director of the Tent of Nations, was enlightening and fruitful. Mr. Nassar shared his family's story of living in occupied Palestine and the challenges they face to retain and farm their land. His primary message, however, was of hope and belief in others through education and peaceful outreach. Clearly their Lutheran Christian faith is being lived out every day in challenging circumstances. It was inspiring.
Mr. Nassar extended an invitation to all to visit his family in Palestine, even if for only ten minutes. Long-term stays are welcomed and encouraged. They host workcamps, summer programs for children and much more.
