Thank you for supporting Pilgrims of Ibillin’s 2021 #GivingTuesday campaign and the English translation of Abuna Elias Chacour’s new book, The Sermon on the Mount – The Way to the Kingdom. This book focuses on a new understanding of The Beatitudes, and Abuna Chacour describes it as the culmination of his life’s work in faith and peace-building.
Listen to Father Chacour share about why this book is critically needed in today’s world at this link.
The translation is expected to cost $10,000. Monies raised beyond the cost of translation will be directed to the Mar Elias Educational Institutions that increase understanding, cooperation and peace between the children of Israel and Palestine.
Hear from Pilgrims of Ibillin board members as they share about the role The Beautitudes plays in their personal faith journey and to reflect on Father Chacour’s interpretation of a call to action. Rev. Dr. Lucy Forster-Smith, moderates the discussion. Click on Board Reflections.
