KAIROS PALESTINE
EASTER ALERT 2020

From the Booklet:

"... Before the Lord of the Resurrection, we all triumph over death, and all peoples become makers of Resurrection, makers of life, freedom and dignity for themselves and all their brothers and sisters. No human being, however great or strong, is allowed to impose death on another in order to secure one’s own life. The lives of each of us—little or great, weak or strong—depend on the life of our brother and sister. God created us in God’s image and likeness, great and free, in God’s own image. This is what the feast of the Resurrection tells us. It announces that we can be good and givers of life and freedom to each other."

Kairos Palestine urges you to please do the following:

1. Distribute and study these theological reflections in your places of worship each Sunday to inform and educate your community about the suffering of your Palestinian family living under Israeli occupation.

2. Share the alert with congregations, regions, conferences, presbyteries and dioceses across your country.

3. Respond to the Call...Send letters of solidarity and support for justice in Palestine/Israel to the Israeli embassies in your own country.  Here is the contact page for the USA and the list of embassies worldwide.

4. “Come and see.” We will fulfill our role to make it known to you the truth of our reality, receiving you as pilgrims—sisters and brothers—coming to us to pray, carrying a message of peace, love and reconciliation. Thus, you will know the facts and the people of this land, Palestinians and Israelis alike. (Kairos 6.2)

5. Take tangible actions. Support Palestinian rights by supporting Boycott, Divestment and Sanctions (BDS) against Israel until it complies with International Law and UN resolutions. Support the right of persons, corporations, states and nations to boycott Israel as an expression of their freedom of speech.

6. Inform us - Tell your Palestinian brothers and sisters about the ways you have been involved with the Easter Alert by writing us at this email address: kairos@kairospalestine.ps. Contact us for any other reason, too. Our strength and courage are emboldened by our contacts with you.
