National Interreligious Leadership Delegation

In Support of the Road Map to Peace in the Middle East


A delegation of the highest levels of national Jewish, Christian and Muslim religious leadership has come together to express the moral and political imperative for more active, determined and effective US leadership in bringing peace to the birthplace of the three Abrahamic faiths. The delegation members will use the communication networks and other resources of the organizations they represent to help build local, regional and national appreciation of the urgent need for moderate voices to assert themselves, make Jerusalem a symbol of peace for the world, and prevent further escalation of violence in the region, in the United States, and more broadly.
