GRACE Kids Pilgrimage 2007
168 peace workers walked by foot through the desert from Eilat to Jerusalem, people from Israel, Palestine and many countries, for four weeks. Among them were seven children.
They walked through Israel and the Westbank, slept in the sand, and were hosted in Kibbuzim, settlements, Bedouin villages, army camps, and Palestinian refugee camps. What they found were people, humans, children. Not enemies.
The only enemy they found was the ignorance of people behind walls, not knowing each other, being afraid of each other.
The last night they spent in front of the separation wall in the Aida refugee camp in Bethlehem.
They stayed awake the whole night, meditating and imagining: What will peace look like in this country? What will peace look like in Israel-Palestine?
The children had many moving encounters - in the community, and with children who live under the situation of violence.
Two of them, Maria and Maurice, sent us exerpts of their diaries.
