The “Let the Children Live” Grant Program is now accepting educators, both formal and informal, who care about the lives of children and others in the Holy Land. The program is to promote understanding, dialogue, and compassionate action. Those participating will be expected to share what they learn helping to build empathy among people. Participants will receive a copy of Teaching Palestine, a subscription to Re-thinking Schools, opportunities to participate in discussions both face-to-face and virtual, and other resources such as the recording of Women Wage Peace. The grant leader Sister Martha Ann Kirk was a scholar-in-residence at the Vatican founded Tantur Ecumenical Institute between Jerusalem and Bethlehem. Read some about her in Global Sisters Report.
Read of her May 2025 experiences in the Holy Land among the Women of the Sun and Women Wage Peace nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize.
The Incarnate Word Sisters Justice, Peace, and Creation Office invites you to be a part of this effort to build compassion, justice, and peace. For more information and/or to apply for the grant program, write kirk@uiwtx.edu or call 210-883-5934.
