Eliyahu explains program for the day

From the Abrahamic Reunion multi-faith gathering at Mount Gerizim, Har Bracha/Mt. of Blessings, Dec. 21, 2014. Hosted by the Samaritans in their village overlooking Nablus, we gathered, 120 Israelis and Palestinians, on the eve of the sixth night of Hanukkah. The day had dialogue circles, blessings by the high priest and governor of Nablus, a women's session about Samaritan customs, gathering at the ruins of the ancient Samaritan temple for a prayer circle and views of Balata and Joseph's Tomb, a tour of the Passover sacrifice site and Samaritan museum, teachings about light in Islam, and the inner meaning of Christmas and a closing Hannukah celebration.
