Metropolitan VIM team leaves June 9th!

Metropolitan's Volunteers in Mission team leaves June 9th!

We invite the congregation and our families and friends to support us in prayer and by following the news from Palestine, Israel, and Jordan while we are there.

You can also learn about our hosts and in the Middle East and the organizations making our trip possible by visiting their websites. Check them out here:

United Methodist Volunteers in Mission, http://new.gbgm-umc.org/about/us/mv/
Mar Elias Educational Institute, http://www.meei.org/
Holy Land Christian Ecumenical Foundation, www.hcef.org

We hope you will keep us and the communities we visit in your prayers, realizing that while we travel in their towns for 16 short days, these communities live daily in the face of much uncertainty. We pray for all of the people of Israel, Palestine, and Jordan, regardless of their religion or nationality, and for peace and justice in their communities.
