1. 5/29: Local Tikkun Community Gathering

Jim & Ginger Kenney cordially invite each of you to 6100 West 52nd Street at 7:00 P.M. Thursday, May 29th for initially, an informal discussion and time of study and reflection on the Israel/Palestine conflict. We will formally conclude our time together at 9 P.M. but will be open to further conversation with those who feel so inspired.

While it is important to be aware of the inappropriate behavior on both sides of the conflict and the long sad history leading up to the present time, it is my hope that the focus of all our mutual informing of ourselves will be a search for creative solutions, looking toward the future rather than getting bogged down with the past.
