You are getting two messages from me this week… I wanted to share the Ecumenical Statement on Violence between Hamas and Israel that the United Church sent out this morning . You can read it below.
One of the participants in the pilgrimage I was supposed to be on wrote this and gave us permission to share it. This is what she said, “I wrote it shortly after returning from Palestine 10 years ago. It hints at the dear old Christmas carol, ‘O little town of Bethlehem’, but as you will see/hear, it is quite different. It features the dear children and youth of Jayyous, Hebron,and Al Aroub refugee camp. My heart is raging and grieving this morning… “
