Center for SACREd Change presents Building Bridges to Other

We will look at tools that open us to more deeply hear/see those who are considered different – or even the enemy -  as we learn from the real people of Israel, Palestine, Ethiopia,  and one another. 

We will meet in circle to strengthen and empower learning that we can apply to our personal relationships, as well as work in the community and world that we care about.  There is no charge but free-will donations for the Hope Flowers School, near Bethlehem, will be accepted. 

Location: Opportunity Council Center Conference Room, 1111 Cornwall Ave, Bellingham, WA  Date: June 5, 2012  Time: 7PM
