Siach Yeshiva and Hebron students on September 24t

The group in encounter

This amazingly unique group of Yeshiva students from Siach Yeshiva and Palestinian students from Hebron met again on September 24^th.

It was planned to take place in the Austrian Hospice in East Jerusalem but as some of the Palestinian friends did not receive permits we moved it to English Cake Café on Gush Etzion junction. We met at 6pm and were 5 Palestinian friends and 4 Jewish friends.

The theme of the encounter was prayer in both religions. First we introduced ourselves and the Moatasem presented the theme of prayer in Islam. Then people asked some questions and made some comments and then we broke for coffee and cake.

After that Moshe presented the theme from the Jewish perspective. We asked him some questions and after a while we concluded and went home.
