AN INVITION TO THE PALESTINIAN LAND EXERCISE
2025-05-24 13:00 - 15:00 (America/Vancouver) | Deo Lutheran Church, 1801 30th St., Salmon Arm, BC, Canada
IT DIDN’T’ START ON OCTOBER 7TH.
The Palestinian Land Exercise is a participatory exercise that traces the history of Palestinian-Israeli relations using the format of the Kairos Blanket Exercise, (looking at the effects of colonization in Canada). In the exercise, we will take on the role of the Palestinians and actively experience some of the major events that have happened since the end of the 19th Century in Palestine and Israel.
The exercise might challenge your beliefs about the situation in Palestine and Israel.
Come with an open mind and heart to hear stories of people directly affected in the Palestinian context.
The play will be followed by a sharing circle where all are invited to respond and reflect on what we have learned. The event concludes with a discussion of steps you might take to promote an end to the occupation and to work for Justice for ALL citizens of Palestine and Israel.
Spaces are limited to 25 people and pre-registration is required. Register by scanning the QR code on the poster, or by going to https://forms.gle/AuPyAgqkDYDnWkvH6

Join David Gershon, architect of the Peace Game and Peace on Earth by 2030 movement, who will share the vision and practices for achieving Peace on Earth by 2030, and how you can participate through playing the Peace Game.

Global Online Peace Game
2025-10-15 09:00 - 11:00 (America/Vancouver) | BC
Wednesday, October 15th – Dec 10th 2025
9am-11am (Vancouver Time Zone)
The seven actions of the Peace Game — empowerment, oneness, unity, cooperation, abundance, love and faith — are transformational practices that when collectively applied evolve a person into an emanation of peace and everything around them into manifestations of peace. They are practices which mean their impact deepens as one invests in them over time. There is also a meditation associated with each action to help internalize it.
The Peace Game is divided into four parts that represent the different facets of creating peace in one’s life and world. Action 1 on Empowerment focuses on capacity building, Actions 2 to 4 on Oneness, Unity and Cooperation focus on peace building, Actions 5 and 6 on Abundance and Love focus on field building, and Action 7 on Faith focuses on movement building.
At its essence the Peace Game is an empowerment platform enabling people to envision and create a life of peace for themselves and influence those in their world to do the same. At scale it can reweave the social fabric of a community.
Playing the Peace Game empowers, enlightens and transforms those players and communities who wholeheartedly engage with it. The Peace Game is a peace intensive and requires a commitment of time, intention and wholeheartedness to be played well.
The meetings are 2-hours and it takes, on average, 2 hours to implement the peace actions. Some actions take less time and are done during the week between meetings. Other actions take more time and are spread out over 2-3 weeks. The Peace Game App provides guidance on scheduling the requisite time needed based on the level of play you choose. The levels of play are based on the time and effort required.
