Book Launch: To Gaza With Love by Dr. Samina Salim
Houston, TX – December 6, 2025 — Trinity Episcopal Church will host the highly anticipated launch of To Gaza With Love, a moving new book by Dr. Samina Salim, on Saturday, December 6, 2025, at 2:00 PM.
To Gaza With Love is an evocative collection of reflections, poetry, and art; a deeply personal and heartfelt response to the human suffering and resilience witnessed in Gaza. Through vivid language and tender imagery, Dr. Salim honors the lives lost, the courage of those who endure, and the universal call to compassion and justice.
This launch event will bring together readers, artists, faith leaders, and advocates for peace in a shared space of reflection and solidarity. The program will include a keynote address by a well-known trauma clinician, Dr. Nidal Moukaddam, readings from the book, a conversation with the author, and a discussion on the power of poetry, art, and empathy in times of conflict by Rev. Hannah Atkins Romero, a well-known historian, Dr. Hanan Hammad, and a cultural anthropologist, Dr. Ann Bragdon.
“This book is born of grief and love; love for humanity and the unyielding spirit that refuses to be silenced,” says Dr. Salim. “It is my humble offering to remember, to feel, and to hope.”
