Christian Organizations Demand Immediate Ceasefire in Gaza
Statement issued by a diverse coalition of Christian organizations including UMKR, and organized by Friends of Sabeel North America (FOSNA). We are responding to the horrifying loss of innocent life in Israel and the genocidal massacre, destruction and inhumane siege on civilians in Gaza. We are likewise heartbroken and outraged by the cruelty and complicity of U.S. government officials, and the cowardice or callous indifference of many of our religious leaders and institutions. Can be endorsed by individuals and organizations.
