In Chicago, a large group of Mennonites and interfaith allies called on their representatives to support a ceasefire and send food, not bombs, to Gaza. In a powerful action on Good Friday, they laid out 1,400 pairs of shoes to symbolize the more than 30,000 people killed in Gaza.

More than 1,000 demonstrators across the United States and Canada highlighted the humanitarian crisis in Gaza as they called on elected officials to support a ceasefire during Holy Week events in late March. Thanks for the coverage of our movement! https://t.co/tuVpPBZXtu
