The communion plate and chalice are made in Hebron.  Hebron is a historic city throughout Scripture, and it is the final resting place for Abraham and Sarah (as well as their son Isaac, grandson Jacob and Rebecca and Leah).  Recent violence has not only threatened the lives of Palestinian children and families in Hebron, but it has also destroyed the economy, which relies heavily on visitors, spiritual pilgrims, and tourists.  So the Peace Communion project is not only a sign of spiritual solidarity with families being crushed by military violence, but it is also an act of economic solidarity – a concrete way we can support the local economy in Hebron.  We are working directly with the Palestinian families who design and make the communion sets.

We are suggesting a donation of $100 per communion set, which will include a PDF download of our liturgical toolkit.  Proceeds go to cover costs and to support Palestinian-owned businesses in Hebron.
