HEAR: Casper and Erin Adson of Christian Peacemaker Teams in Brisbane: 15 - 17 August 2008
Erin and Casper Adson are a young Australian couple who have had their lives turned upside down by the power of creative nonviolence. Early in 2008 they joined a Christian Peacemaker Team (CPT) delegation to the West Bank in Israel-Palestine where they explored a Christian response to international conflict and the people who are affected by it on a daily basis.
Since they’ve returned to Australia they have been presenting an alternative narrative of the conflict and building solidarity in Australia. Erin works in community development and Casper is a chemical engineer. They want to join other ‘ordinary radicals’ in exploring another way for this war-torn world.
