(RNS2-MAY25) Christian Peacemaker Teams member Diana Zimmerman (red hat) and others
escort Palestinian children on their way to school. Christian Peacemaker Teams volunteers live
among Palestinians in their towns and villages, accompany them through Israeli military
checkpoints, stand in front of Palestinian homes slated for demolition and report what they perceive
to be human-rights abuses, among other things. Critics say the religious organization, and others
like it, have taken sides in the thorny Arab-Israeli conflict, but volunteers say they are merely living
out biblical principles of non-violence. See RNS-CHRISTIAN-PEACEMAKER, transmitted May

No paywalls here. Thanks to you.
As an independent nonprofit, RNS believes everyone should have access to coverage of religion that is fair, thoughtful and inclusive. That's why you will never hit a paywall on our site; you can read all the stories and columns you want, free of charge (and we hope you read a lot of them!)

But, of course, producing this journalism carries a high cost, to support the reporters, editors, columnists, and the behind-the-scenes staff that keep this site up and running. That's why we ask that if you can, you consider becoming one of our donors. Any amount helps, and because we're a nonprofit, all of it goes to support our mission: To produce thoughtful, factual coverage of religion that helps you better understand the world. Thank you for reading and supporting RNS.
