The Wall - art and reflection by Mary Gunderson

The conflict between Israel and Palestine has been a constant shed of tears and blood for many decades.


In 2002 Israel began building a concrete wall that is 25 feet high to separate Palestine, but as well confiscate land from the Palestinians that could be used for homes and agriculture.

It is a hard issue to talk about. Where do we stand in it? The United States has played a role in financing the Wall. Do we then participate in the agony of Palestinians? How then can we discover and participate in the role of peace and justice as our Lord would require of us?
