On Tuesday, June 15th at 7:30 p.m., a Prayer Service for Peace in the Middle East will be held at Lutheran Church of the Atonement, 909 East Main Street in Barrington.
The service will include Bible readings, music, prayer, and sharing of timely information. In an ecumenical effort to more fully support faithful prayer until a just and lasting peace comes the Middle East, participating Illinois churches hold similar services on the 15th of each month. To learn more, call 847-381-0243.
A special guest, Ali Amr, a 19-year-old virtuoso, will share the exceptional musical talents he brought last year to Grace. He will also share his personal story of life in Ramallah on the West Bank, learning and performing music from an early age, and studies at Berklee College of Music in Boston.
Ali is both a vocalist and an instrumentalist, playing the challenging qanun, a 72-string Arabic lap harp.
Everyone is invited to a uniquely inspiring evening of prayer, music, and dialogue.
