What did your tax dollars do today in Gaza City? The last place of refuge for displaced Palestinians is being reduced to rubble. Over 90% of the city’s buildings are already destroyed. Families with nowhere left to go. Entire neighborhoods, like Al-Zeitoun—once a historic Christian quarter—are gone. Only two churches remain standing amid the devastation, while Muslim and Christian families alike have been uprooted. Every community is suffering. Every life matters. And still, Congress sends more weapons. But the tide is shifting globally: Spain has refused to dock weapons ships bound for Israel. The EU has blocked far-right leaders backing this war. Public pressure is working abroad. It can work here, too. Here’s how: Call your representatives. Demand an end to U.S. weapons transfers. This genocide is sustained by our silence—but change is possible if we act. Photo credits: Slide 2: Mohammed Ibrahim Slide 4: U.S. Department of State, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons (fb)

Last week, Telos joined nearly 600 individuals and organizations in Glen Ellyn, IL for the Church at the Crossroads Conference. It was a powerful time of connection, learning, and solidarity as we engaged vital conversations around Christian Zionism, Palestinian human rights, and movement-building. We’re deeply grateful to the organizers who made this gathering possible—and to all who stopped by our table. It was a joy to meet you and share in this work together. #CATX25 #solidarity #peacemaking (fb)
