Resources Relating to the Israel-Hamas War
The ELCA has close ties to the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land,
which has congregations both in the Palestinian territories and in Jerusalem.
We mourn with all of our family in faith--Christians, Jews and Muslims--and with all of God's children
over the grief and trauma of recent events.
You can find the following resources relating to the current war at the ELCA website:
Presiding Bishop Elizabeth Eaton's statement on the Israel-Hamas War (10/13/23)
Presiding Bishop Eaton's letter to Bishop Azar of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in Jordan and the Holy Land (1010/23)
A Statement from Bishop Azar and ELCJHL (10/7/23)
Update and Statement of Appreciation to our Partners for Prayers and Support from Bishop Azar (10/12/23)
A Statement from the Lutheran World Federation: Israel and Palestine: Civilians must be protected and hostages released (10/11/23)
