A Conversation with Rev. Fadi Diab and the Guibord Center

The evening begins with worship.

The Choir of St. John’s Cathedral will offer a service of Choral Evensong. The service will feature Herbert Howells’ Collegium Regale evening service, Philip Moore’s anthem All wisdom cometh from the Lord, and Preces & Responses by Christopher Gravis.  

After the Evensong service, we will be hosting a conversation with the Rev. Fadi Diab and the Guibord Center. This is a wonderful opportunity to engage in a meaningful dialogue about important issues and learn from respected voices in our community. Following the conversation, we will be sharing a simple meal together.

We are so grateful to Fr. Lee Walker for suggesting this wonderful idea.

About The Rev. Fadi Diab

The Rev. Fadi Diab is a well-respected theologian in the Palestinian community and a prophetic voice for justice and peace. He also provides leadership and pastoral support to the Arab Evangelical Episcopal School (AEES), the Episcopal Technological & Vocational Training Center (ETVTC), and the Diocesan-sponsored Diabetes & Cardiovascular Clinic, which provides outpatient treatment to those suffering from diabetes and cardiovascular diseases. He is also the Rector of a sister parish to St. Andrew's, St. Peter's Episcopal Church in Birzeit, which is constructing a retirement home and senior center. In August of 2022, St. Andrew’s Anglican Church in Ramallah was forcibly entered and severely damaged by the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) in an early-morning raid targeting the human rights group Al-Haq, whose offices were located in an adjacent building. This raid was condemned by the Diocese of Jerusalem and international organizations.
