Sumud is an Arabic word meaning “steadfastness.” The term is widely used by Palestinian theologians and others to signify Palestinian resistance to the Israeli occupation of Palestinian lands and people. It is also the new name for the ELCA ministry formerly known as Peace Not Walls, which is committed to accompaniment, advocacy, and awareness-raising with our partners in the Holy Land and the United States. They have put together a 6-week video series and Bible study called Following the Way of Jesus: a Lenten Holy Land Journey, which we will be studying on Sundays at 9:15 AM, beginning April 14.
Even though we’ve completed our Lenten journey for this year, the topic seemed too important and timely to wait until next year so we will be studying it through the season of Easter instead.
