Event Description

As Christians, we grieve lament the ongoing catastrophe and genocide in Gaza. We want to work for a just future for Palestinians, so that all people might live in justice, safety, and peace in the Holy Land. We hear the words of Rev. Dr. Munther Isaac, that “Christ is in the rubble.” If Christ is in the rubble, where too should Christians be? Living and acting in solidarity with those under the rubble and those facing violence and ongoing oppression. “Truly I tell you, just as you did it to one of the least of these brothers and sisters of mine, you did it to me.”

What concrete steps can followers of Jesus do to build solidarity with Palestinians? 

This educational event (a teach-in) will feature Christian leaders active in the movement for Palestinian solidarity and liberation, seeking a permanent bilateral ceasefire, an end to U.S. funding for Israeli weapons, and for the liberation of Palestinians from Israel’s military occupation and apartheid. 

This event will highlight how Christians can embody solidarity with Palestine–including Palestinian Christians facing displacement and erasure–through delegations, protests, nonviolent direct action, advocacy, and other means. Speakers include three delegates of the recent Stones Cry Out Delegation to Palestine, a Christian solidarity delegation (Feb/Mar 2024), and other Christian faith leaders and activists involved in seeking justice, freedom, and holistic peace in Palestine.
