As Episcopalians, we must call upon our leaders—President Biden, members of Congress, and others—to be unequivocal that we need to stop the killing. Today. This is clearly what love demands of us. Read online:

Vengeance will not bring back the dead. Retaliation will not repair the harms and the hurt. We are called to love, even and especially when it seems impossible. We must stop the next 10,000 from being killed.

U.S. leadership must tell Israel to stop bombing civilian areas and allow access for full humanitarian aid to flow freely into Gaza. Every human child of God—Palestinian and Israeli—deserves safety and security. We need to stop the killing. Today.

They feel that the international community is tacitly sanctioning the killing of civilians and the bombing of schools, hospitals, and refugee camps. Staying quiet in this moment would be a stain upon our souls and would deepen our complicity.

We cannot stand by while thousands of civilians die. Our partners in the region tell us they live in terror—that they feel they have died even while alive.

The violence is horrific, and the geopolitics are complex, but my call to love is simple: Stop the killing. Stop all of it. Stop it today. We will not be silent while an entire population is denied food, water, electricity, and fuel needed to run hospitals.

We are called to a love that demands much from us. We are called to a love that tells the truth. Today I raise my voice for love because more than 10,000 people have died in Gaza, including more than 4,000 children.

Prayer matters and makes a difference. We must pray. So, pray for wisdom and moral courage for world leaders so that violence does not beget more violence—because violence doesn’t work, and violence will not bring about a just and sustainable and enduring peace.

People of faith and goodwill can organize and address our governments to call for humanitarian aid to flow freely to those in desperate need in Gaza; for release of all hostages; 🧵.
Call for a Ceasefire Now -- In this moment of violence and destruction, lift your voices and strongly urge @POTUS and your representatives in Congress to call for a humanitarian truce, as called for by @UN_PGA. With @TheEPPN, pray and act: .
