Nablus Area Interfaith Encounter Group- 2 encounters
September 17, 2021
The recent encounter of the Nablus region group of IEA was interesting and different. We were supposed to go to the Waterslide at Ouja spring, however when we arrived it was hot, there was limited shade and lots of trash, so at the last minute we decided to drive in a caravan of cars to Wadi Qelt. Unfortunately, one family decided to stay behind as they had just been to Qelt the previous day. Wadi Qelt involved first a 10-minute descent through the mountain into the Wadi, which brought us to the upper parking lot. From there was another 10-15-minute hike carrying our gear to get to the desired shaded spot to set up grills and go for a swim. But the location was good and we got to spend a few hours before leaving.

What an amazing encounter! We received a very special guided tour in the Samaritan village - specifically to see their Sukkot. Unlike the Sukkot of the Jews, they hang fruits in their Salons. We visited the Sukkah of their high priest and then afterwards received a tour of their Synagogue where we learned about the religion and history of the Samaritan people. We finished the tour with a visit to the Har Bracha Tahini factory. What a treat!

קבוצת המפגש הבין דתי באזור שכם- 2 מפגשים
17 בספטמבר 2021
המפגש האחרון שלנו של אגודת המפגש בין דתי באזור שכם היה מעניין וקצת שונה. רצינו להגיע לעין עוג'ה, אבל כשהגענו מצאנו מקום דל בצל, מלוכלך, וחם במיוחד. אז החלטנו לנסוע לוואדי קלט. לצערנו אחת מהמשפחות הייתה שמה יום לפני ולא רצתה להמשיך איתנו. כשהגענו לאתר השני הייתה נסיעה של 10 דקות לרדת בתוך הוואדי, זה הביא אותנו לחניון למעלה. אח"כ היית הליכה של עוד 10-15 דקות. ב''ה האתר היה מציון ובילינו כמה שעות.

איזה מפגש נפלא! עשינו סיור מודרך בכפר של השומרונים, כדי לבקר ולראות את סוכותיהם. לא כמו סוכות היהודים, הם תולים פירות בסלון. ביקרנו בסוכה של הכהן הגדול שלהם ואחר כך ראינו בית כנסת שלהם ולמדנו קצת על דת והיסטוריה שלהם. בסוף סיימנו עם סיור בתוך מפעל טחינת הר ברכה. איזה כיף זה היה!

لقاء مجموعة اللقاء بين الديانات بمنطقة نابلس – لقاءان
17 سبتمبر 2021
كان اللقاء الأخير لمجموعة لقاء الأديان في منطقة نابلس ممتعًا ومختلفًا. كان من المفترض أن نذهب إلى المنحدر المائي في نبع العوجة، ولكن عندما وصلنا كان الجو حارًا، كان هناك ظل محدود والكثير من القمامة، لذلك قررنا في اللحظة الأخيرة القيادة في قافلة من السيارات إلى وادي قيلت. لسوء الحظ، قررت عائلة واحدة البقاء في الخلف لأنها كانت لتوها في كيلت في اليوم السابق. اشتمل وادي قلط في البداية على نزول لمدة 10 دقائق عبر الجبل إلى الوادي، مما أوصلنا إلى ساحة انتظار السيارات العليا. من هناك تم التنزه لمدة 10-15 دقيقة أخرى بحمل معداتنا للوصول إلى المكان المظلل المرغوب فيه لإعداد المشاوي والسباحة. لكن الموقع كان جيدًا وكان علينا قضاء بضع ساعات قبل المغادرة.

يا لها من لقاء رائع! لقد تلقينا جولة إرشادية خاصة جدًا في القرية السامرية - على وجه التحديد لرؤية سوكوت. على عكس سوكوت اليهود، فإنهم يعلقون الفاكهة في صالوناتهم. قمنا بزيارة سكة الكاهن الأكبر ثم بعد ذلك استقبلنا جولة في كنيسهم حيث تعرفنا على ديانة وتاريخ الشعب السامري. أنهينا الجولة بزيارة مصنع هار براخا طحينة. يا له من علاج!
