Bishop Nick has urged churches in the Diocese to help those caught up in the massive humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

There is a desperate need for medical supplies and resources to treat casualties. The Diocese of Jerusalem has launched an emergency appeal for the Anglican Al Ahli Arab Hospital in Gaza which is doing amazing work responding to the civilian casualties. Please do donate to Christian Aid if you feel able.

Bishop Nick also asks for continued prayer for the peace of Jerusalem, Israel-Palestine and the wider Middle East where the suffering is overwhelming.
