About
Manuel Musallam (Arabic: منويل مسلم; born 16 April 1938) is a Palestinian Catholic priest. His pastoral work has taken him to Jordan, the West Bank, and to Gaza. He is a Palestinian activist, strongly opposed to Israel's occupation of the Palestinian territories, and the Judaization of Jerusalem. He has opened the doors of Christian schools to Muslim families, worked to achieve an understanding between Fatah and Hamas and has been instrumental in brokering solutions to both infra-Muslim and Muslim-Christian tensions. Mahmoud Abbas, President of the Palestinian Authority, appointed him head of the Department for the Christians of the Palestinian Foreign Office. He is an orator of distinction, and a founder of Palestinian Folklore Groups, for which he was awarded a gold medal. Father Musallem retired to Birzeit, aged 71, on health grounds, in May 2009.
