The Summer Intensive in Bethlehem is an immersive learning experience that brings students into direct encounter with the land, people, and realities that shape the Palestine-Israel conflict.

Rooted in the witness of the Palestinian Church, the program weaves together biblical reflection, theological formation, classroom learning, and firsthand experience. Students engage with Christian, Muslim, and Jewish leaders, grassroots peacemakers, and local organizations; visit sites of profound historical, political, and spiritual significance; and experience the rhythms of daily life in Bethlehem and Jerusalem.

The Summer Intensive invites participants to see with new eyes, deepen their faith, and discover what it means to pursue justice and peace in one of the world's most contested landscapes.
