Holy Trinity at the Movies

The deChantal group at Holy Trinity is hosting a must see movie called PROMISES -here is Eve Marie's write up:
De Chantal Group invites everyone to see and taste what it's like to be a Palestinian or Israeli living in Jerusalem. Enjoy the cuisine (falafell, swarma, assorted salads and sweets or simply sip a traditional mint tea) as you watch the movie "Promises" on Wednesday June 29 from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m. (it's all good, it's all free)

Eve Marie has a wonderful philosophy- part of the deChantal ministry involves introducing people to food of the various states or regions featured in their monthly dinners. The Taste of Spain was particularly well attended with delighted folks eating home made flan for desert after fantastic paella with overflowing mussells and shrimp and chorizo. Kosher food is 'hallal' she explained noting that muslims and israelis eat more or less the same way. Eve Marie explains that she likes to connect people through food. "Like Jesus" I add. It's sure to be a memorable evening.

The Rumi Forum is a Turkish think tank that hosts weekly (more or less) luncheons which feature turkish foods on top of fantastic lectures by Ambassadors and foreign policy practitioners. http://www.rumiforum.org/
