  Peace   

Improving Relations Between Vatican and the State of Israel   When diplomatic relations started with Israel on Dec 30, 1993, a few important issues were never settled and remain outstanding today. Improved relations, with the Holy See, will have enormous benefits to Israel both economically and politically.

Improving Relations within the Orthodox Church The challenge is to overcome historical disagreements that have hindered the universal message of peace that is common to all faiths.

The Alexandria Declaration for Peace in the Holy Land  Religious leaders from the Muslim, Christian and Jewish communities, pray for true peace in Jerusalem and the Holy Land, and declare our commitment to ending the violence and bloodshed that denies the right to life and dignity.

Projects for Peace in the Middle East  - Live and Practice “Shalom and Salaam” --don’t just say it- Through a mutually beneficial prosperity plan, we hope to create an environment where hatred and violence will take a back seat to building a future and raising a family.

Palestinian-Israeli Prosperity Plan-This plan is simply designed to reduce one of the fundamental factors, which contribute to hostilities and acts of violence. A basic human need is to have a meaningful job in a peaceful environment.

Promoting Christian Tourism in the Holy Land Throughout the tumultuous history of the Middle East each conflict has resulted in a decimation of the tourism industry. This has only fueled the conflicts since it directly impacts the livelihood of everyone in the region. Our work to change the course of these events is making significant progress.

International Conference on religious extremism  There is a large segment of Muslim leaders who are not only organizing to condemn the use of the name of Islam for all violence, but also strongly believe in Israel's right to exist in peace with her neighbors.

Problem Solving    Pave the Way has interceded to head off potential problems between the religions in Israel.

Palestinian- Israeli Peace  Throughout our travels in the Middle East, the predominant message we hear from Palestinians and Israelis is that they all genuinely want peace. This is in direct contrast to the media representation of the conditions in the region. PTWF is working with prominent Palestinians to give their people another choice to focus on finally working for peaceful co-existence with the Israelis.

Affirmation of His Beatitude Theofilos III Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem  PTWF is urging the Israeli government and the Jordanian Kingdom, to grant immediate affirmation to the Greek Orthodox Patriarch of Jerusalem in the interest of improving inter-religious relations and assuring freedom of religion devoid of political influence.

Mom's Baby gift  PTWF is proud of its principal concept, that a gesture is the most important means to open the door to meaningful changes in the positive relations between people. This is particularly true when, on a one to one basis, hatred and bigotry subsides when faced with a hand extended with kindness and compassion and also holds a meaningful personal gift. This baby formula and gift program is equally distributed to Muslim, Christian and Jewish Moms.

Gifts of warm blankets for Holocaust survivors in Jerusalem ave the Way Foundation director in Israel Sam Philipe, locates specific unfilled needs of all in Israel. Sam initiated our project baby where PTWF assisted poor Jewish, Christian and Muslim mothers received gift baskets of one month supplies of baby formula , diapers and toys. Sam ask us to intercede on behalf of poor Holocaust survivors living in subsidized housing in Jerusalem, These people only recently emigrated to Israel from the former Soviet Union. The down blankets we distributed provide warmth for them during the winter months. We have distibuted hundreds of blankets so far in different facilities at Beit Gilhazav, Jerusalem

Meeting with the Grand Mufti of Jerusalem to help to eliminate the violent misuse of Islam - Islamic religion has been defiled by the acts of the few at the expense of the many. The media must be responsible to report the many Muslim claims which condemn violence in the name of Islam.

Media's role in International conflicts- As we collectively attempt to analyze the contributing factors of the conflicts which engulf our world, the media's role in these conflicts have traditionally been a taboo subject and is left unsaid. The civilized world must come to realize this major tool, used by every side,  needs to be reformed for good and to fulfill its mandate. News must be reported without opinion or bias.

PTWF works with the Armenian Patriarchate of Jerusalem- PTWF works with the Armenian Church to encourage gestures between  the faiths and to encourage new pilgrimages to come to the Holy Land which benefits everyone on the region.
