Speaking Up For Palestine - Stephen Sizer Speaking Tour

Voices From Palestine: Speaking Up For Palestine

Event Location: Balmain Uniting Church 
344 Darling Street, Balmain 5:30pm on 18 MarchContact: events4peace@gmail.com

For the past 51 years there has been talk of a two state solution, for Palestine and Israel. However, Palestinians in the West Bank, continue to live under military law, with limited self-autonomy.

Jews, Christians, Muslims and people of conscience have challenged the reality of the military occupation by Israel of Palestine, at great cost.

Come and hear two people's experience of the cost of speaking up for Palestine.

Guest speaker: Rev Dr Stephen Sizer
Stephen is the director of Peacemaker Trust, a registered charity dedicated to peacemaking, especially where minorities are persecuted, where justice is denied, human rights are suppressed or reconciliation is needed.
Stephen was ordained in 1983.  For 35 years Stephen pastored three Anglican churches in the UK. He is an author, Bible teacher and trainer, and travels extensively in the Middle Easet and Africa.

Susan Wahhab 
Susan is the managing director of Winner Partnership, a Sydney based financial services practice. Susan was born in Jerusalem and lived the first 17 years of her life in Ramallah before migrating to Australia in the late 1980s. 

It took Susan 30 years in Australia before she had the courage to share her experience of growing up in Israeli occupied Palestine in her finance book Money Intelligence.
