http://pief.oikoumene.org is a new website launched by the Palestine-Israel Ecumenical Forum geared to providing a springboard for advocacy, public education, and mobilization.

The website will provide support for actions with partner churches and ecumenical organizations focussing on the following areas:

1. challenging government support for the occupation

2. challenging public support for the occupation

3. challenging theological and biblical justifications for the occupation and

4. maintaining a viable Palestinian Christian presence in the Holy Land.

A regular newsletter will provide up-to-date information on Christian campaigns for a just peace and an overview of the latest news from an ecumenical perspective.

At a time when Internet is on the nomination of the Nobel Peace Prize 2010, it is commendable that Palestine-Israel Ecumenical Forum has launched their website in fostering public support and further the advocacy. I pray that this medium shall further the peace process.
