It is a crucial time to be supporting the local Christian Church and peacemakers from different faith communities in Palestine-Israel. As the possibility of a comprehensive peace process ebbs and flows, we endeavour to link up with the Palestinian community and Jewish peacemakers to hear their stories, stand alongside them in their suffering and support their work. Our aim is to encourage them, to educate ourselves about the realities on the ground and to work with them for justice and peace.

For the last 20 years Amos has worked in partnership with a wide number of Jewish, Muslim and Christian peace groups, from Israel, Palestine, the UK and North America. We seek to raise awareness of the devastating impact of: the wall, settlements blocks and travel restrictions upon Palestinian life, particularly within the Bethlehem area. We see this as a key feature of promoting a just and long lasting peace.

The Anglican Diocese of Jerusalem and Wi’am Conflict Resolution Centre in Bethlehem are key partners in shaping our response to this issue while with Open House, in Ramle, we are able to show a model of how reconciliation can be achieved.

Amos organises regular visits to the region offering a chance to see the Biblical sites in their very different current setting and to hear firsthand from those living out their faith and working for peace in this difficult context. Click here for more information about these visits
