GENEVA 18-21 May 2010- 'Theology of Pilgrimage for Palestine'

A Consultation on ‘Theology of Pilgrimage for Palestine’ took place in Geneva from 18-21 May 2010. ECOT was one of the organisers of this meeting. 

A  group of 27 theologians representing 27 countries,  tourism activists and advocacy organizations, and Palestinian Christian activists and tour organizers called on Christian pilgrims to live their faith as they visit the Holy Land, going beyond homage of ancient sites to show concern for the Palestinian people living there whose lives are severely constricted by the Israeli occupation of their lands.
