Beyond Rice Bowl: Conflict in the Holy Land

Join other parish staff and ministry leaders in this exclusive opportunity to discuss the humanitarian crisis in the Holy Land and the steps our parishes can take to develop global solidarity with those in natural disasters, conflicts or poverty.

Catholic Relief Services (CRS) works with poor and vulnerable communities around the world to overcome major emergencies, fight disease and poverty, and nurture peaceful and just societies. CRS is actively working on the ground in response to the humanitarian crisis in the Holy Land.

Caroline Brennan is an Emergency Communications Director for Catholic Relief Services. In her role, she travels to and/or works in areas facing natural or man-made emergencies to conduct interviews and capture the reality of what is happening through stories and video. Caroline will offer an inspiring update about the work of CRS in the Holy Land, while providing concrete ways that individuals and parishes can make a difference to our global family experiencing hunger, conflict or poverty.

*Lunch and refreshments will be provided.

Registration deadline - Wednesday 15th of May.
