Clergy members may be interested in hearing and sharing the religious perspectives of Jewish, Christian and Muslim peacebuilders on nonviolence and the conflict. If you are a clergy member, you may wish to:
- Host a screening of Just Vision's films for your congregants
- Partner with local clergy from other faiths for an interfaith screening and discussion
- Incorporate the stories from our Visionaries section into your sermons and educational programming
- Help your congregations organize ways to support peacebuilding efforts.
If you are a member of a religious congregation, let your leadership know you are interested in participating. If interested in hosting a screening of one of our films, please visit our Host A Screening page for more details on the numerous ways you can bring these stories to your community.
In addition to the quotes suggested below, please visit the Thematic Quotes on Religion is our Visionaries section.

"If I consider myself a peace activist, then all my words and actions must be devoted to peace. For me this is Jihad, and if I die doing this I will be considered a martyr... How do I identify a martyr? He is one that takes a role in improving his community and its situation, according to his own understanding. People can call him what they like, but I consider this a sacred mission that I could use to help the next generations." |

"With our faith in God Almighty, we strongly believe in Him; this is what strengthens us--our faith and the forgiveness within us. We also call for peace that is just and real where there will be no Palestinian or Israeli family that has to go through the same thing we did. Our goal now is to try as much as we can through our love and forgiveness to carry on with our lives and help others not to go through what we went through." |

"Judaism means worshipping the Holy One, blessed be He, without any slogans, words, figurative depictions such as 'Our Lord', 'King of the Universe'. Forget about those. You worship Him because you are a Jew, period…. You worship Him without expecting to receive anything in return, because He does not worship you. But we've forgotten these things, transformed stones into sacred objects, turned land into holy land. The sanctity of the Land of Israel was never measured by sovereignty. Sovereignty is irrelevant to sanctity. … When a man sanctifies a site and for that repulsive sanctity surrenders his life, or his children's lives, it's a tragedy." |
