Listen

Whether you are new to this subject or a long-time campaigner, it is through listening that we are invited to take vital steps in our journey towards costly solidarity. 

Over the last two decades, Palestinian Christians have shared countless letters, calls to actions and reports that help us understand their reality and the existential threat to their presence in the Holy Land. They have also invited us to ‘come and see, go and tell’ as a way of bringing their stories to the attention of our churches and communities.

Here are some of the ways to hear from Palestinian Christians and inform yourself and your church.

  1. Listen to Revd Dr Munther Isaac’s Sermon to the West: Munther Isaac’s Sermon to the West 
  2. Read Kairos II – Faith in a Time of Genocide. This document issued in November 2025 is a stark wake-up call to the global church to act urgently for justice and peace. You can also read and use this congregational study guide: Kairos Palestine II Study Guide — Palestine Justice Network (PJN) and watch this video: Rifat Kassis The importance of studying Kairos II
  3. Watch This film by Kairos Palestine which reveals the hardships that Palestinian Christians face under Israeli occupation and why so many are leaving Palestine. Kairos Palestine documentary “The Silent Genocide”
  4. Read these recent statements by The Heads of Churches in Jerusalem who often highlight challenges facing the Christian Community in Palestine. Unity and Representation of the Christian Community in the Holy Land and The Churches of Jerusalem Call for Urgent Action to End Gaza’s Suffering and Protect the Faithful – Jerusalem Patriarchate – News Gate 
  5. There are many ways to visit Palestine and hear the stories of Palestinian Christians. Members of this coalition run ethical/alternative pilgrimages (Sabeel-Kairos, Embrace, Amos Trust), olive picking solidarity trips (Embrace the Middle East), Holy Land Pilgrimages with St George’s College Jerusalem, and provide opportunities to join Palestinian communities as a protective and solidarity presence (EAPPI).
