The Israel / Palestine Network no longer exists; it has become the Dialogue and Reconciliation Network. This new church network will have the brief of looking at issues of peace and conflict in the wider Middle East rather than in Israel and Palestine alone. If you would like to join us or would like more details do let David Kibble know; members of the old network are not transferred to the new one unless they have asked!
