In May 2021, the world witnessed the impact of direct armed violence and indirect systemic violence on the people of Palestine and Israel. This proposal is in response to the explicit call for justice by Christians in Palestine, including United Church partners there.
The issue addressed by this proposal is the inequity and human rights violations caused by the State of Israel in its ongoing occupation of the Palestinian Territories. How are we, as followers of Jesus, called to respond to the suffering of our neighbours?
