2006: Peacemaking in the Middle East

The Club was very pleased to have Fr. David Burrell present the 2006 Hesburgh Lecture on October 12 at Thomas More College. Fr. Burrell gave a very enlightening lecture on both the present and historical situation taking place in Israel/Palestine, which happens to be where he flew in from to give the lecture.

The Club would also like to thank Thomas More College, as co-host of the event, for their hospitality.
