Presentation on Tent of Nations and Olive Oil Ministry

On Sunday, July 17 following potluck, our Meeting will have an opportunity to learn more about this ministry from the two co-founders of the local ministry, Friends of Tent of Nations North America (FOTONNA). This second hour program will be under the auspices of FMM's Peace & Social Concerns Committee as the committee explores whether to recommend that FMM join about 18 other local congregations as sponsors of the program.

One of the speakers, Bill Mims, is a member of Langley Hill Friends Meeting, a Trustee of BYM, and former clerk of the BYM Peace & Social Concerns Committee. He has worked for 10 years for peace and justice in Israel and Palestine. The other speaker, Bill Plitt, is Executive Director of FOTONNA, whose faith as a Presbyterian is also leading him to work for Peace in the world, especially in Israel and Palestine.
