Many churches, meetings, peace groups and individuals raise support for the work of CPT in diverse and creative ways.  We dedicate this corner to those stories, both as a way to say “Thank You!” and as an inspiration to others.  Please send your friend-raising stories to kryss@cpt.org.

The Mennonite Church and the Muslim community of Floradale, Ontario produced a dinner theatre featuring a traditional Middle Eastern meal and the play “Those Shoes of Peace,” a story of a CPTer’s peacemaking in Palestine and return home to North America where he faces opposition from his family.  Proceeds were divided between CPT and the church’s Palestinian Refugee Committee. CPT received $4857!
