In December 2006, Cardinal Cormac Murphy O'Connor
and Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams, along with other senior representatives
of the UK Christian community, made an historic visit to Bethlehem.
The Cardinal has asked that: “the eyes and
the hearts of the world be opened to what is happening there” and urged
Christians from our country to visit and support the local community.
He emphasized that the continuing conflict in the Holy Land is “a terrible
wound on humanity” and urged both sides to “build
bridges, not walls” ... the TERRA SANCTA EDUCATION TRUST was established
precisely in response to this direct appeal. |
