Middle East Religion Brochure

Introduction

Corporatebank has just opened up a major investment center in Israel. They have moved 1000 employees to the Greater Jerusalem area and are interested in the local chamber of commerce creating an "orientation to the community" meeting. As a member of the religious community, you have volunteered to represent the informational interests of your faith. You will join two people of other faiths in presenting the basic doctrine of your religion.

Process:

1. Create a group of three: one Muslim, one Jew, and one Christian.
2. Complete the entire religion grid for your faith using the resources listed below
3. Create a persuasive brochure using Publisher 98 (Start…Network Programs…Publisher98) explaining the top three reasons that your faith is the ONE TRUE FAITH.

a. Brochure must be neat and plagiarism free!

b. Brochure must contain one possible challenge regarding each of the other two faiths.

c. Each member of your group should have a completed copy of each others brochure and religion grid. (this will help for the challenge)

d. Each member of the group is responsible for knowing the information of the other faiths.

e. Make sure you save all files until we have completely finished the Middle East (important!)
