“To the world, we share our version of the timeless “ Little Drummer Boy.” Our hearts come together in prayer for the safety of the children in Gaza. May our shared prayers echo for peace and justice, weaving a tapestry of hope that goes beyond borders, embracing the shared humanity we all hold dear.”

Donations are needed to help the Ramallah Friends School

An excerpt from a letter from FUM and RFS on the RFS website:

“Friends United Meeting and Ramallah Friends School stand in solidarity with the people in Gaza and all Palestinians who continue to endure ongoing suffering under occupation. We condemn all acts of violence and are horrified by the escalation of the bombing of residential buildings, UNRWA schools, and public institutions, and the recent shelling of the Al-Ahli Hospital. We grieve the loss of innocent lives…”

“… Our hearts are with the affected families and the people, and we mourn deeply for the lives lost in this conflict. We encourage members of the RFS and FUM community to donate to agencies working in Gaza:

American Friends Service Committee:  https://afsc.org
American Friends of the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem: https://afedj.org/

In peace.
