Father Chacour is a Palestinian Melkite Catholic priest who is dedicated to reconciliation between Jews and Palestinians in Israel through the education of youth at Mar Elias Educational Institutions, which he established in 1982.”Thank goodness we are not copies of one another! It is only when we are different that we can complement each other. It is only when we are different that we can form an orchestra of tolerance, respect, and acceptance.” From Rev. Cliacour’s acceptance speech
