ISRAEL/PALESTINE

The Iona Community has a strong and long-standing commitment, through prayer, protest and the active engagement of many members, to seeking peace and justice for all in Israel/Palestine.

The CCN prays together, shares updates on developments and campaigns, leads occasional events, and offers support to those seeking to act on the Iona Community’s statement of 2017. Also strongly connected to Sabeel Kairos, we believe in pursuing a just and peaceful settlement between Israel and the Palestinians which is in the interests of both sides of this asymmetrical conflict and which honours the God-given dignity of every individual in the region.

Many of our Members have acted as ‘accompaniers’ through the Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel.
