United Methodists are responding to Kairos Palestine: A Moment of Truth ,a statement of faith and urgent call to action from Christians in Palestine. UMKR seeks, through nonviolent means and in partnership with Palestinian Christians, freedom, justice and equality for all Palestinians and Israelis.
🔸= Something New or Recently Updated
UMKR was founded in 2010 by a small group of dedicated United Methodist advocates who wanted to see the United Methodist Church cut its financial ties to the Israeli occupation that our church has long opposed. Since then we have grown to a movement with advocates in over 35 annual conferences and on several continents. We also have expanded our scope of advocacy with several areas of action that you can support.
Local Advocacy
Want to connect with local United Methodists and allies? Find others in your conference or region who are justice advocates for Israel/Palestine. There may be a conference task force already or one about to get started. We may also know of allied groups that are active in your area. Contact us to find out what is happening in your region: ac_organizing@kairosresponse.org.
