CLC Chair and LCiGB Bishop Tor B shares Bishop Munib Younan’s message: A Cry from Jerusalem, “I read this as a prophetic message opening a window for a alternative way to approach the destructive escalation of violence and hatred.”

“If only the world leaders would invest half as much money and energy into peacemaking as they invest in war. It is time to end violence over the Holy Land,” says Munib Younan, Bishop Emeritus of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land. Read his full message here.
