Listen in as he advocates for peace, reconciliation, and the transformative power of interfaith dialogue.  Fr. Kelly currently serves as the Vice Director of Magdala in the Holy Land. At Magdala, a crossroads of Jewish and Christian history, Fr Kelly fosters a culture of encounter through inter-religious and ecumenical activity in direct contact with our visitors and through many media initiatives.
