We long for the day when those who come to our shores for safety are welcomed with the kindness and compassion that Jesus teaches.
As followers of Jesus, we hold that distinctions of ethnicity and nationality fade in the light of our shared humanity and the recognition that we are all bearers of God’s image. This understanding deepens our sorrow as we witness the horrors of conflict and the scale of the global displacement crisis. We lament that the systems and nations of our world fail to prioritise peace and adequately extend compassion, care and welcome to those seeking asylum and safety. As we witness the devastation caused by conflicts around the world, we see these failures being acutely played out before us.
As we live through the biggest global displacement crisis in history, and conflict and starvation ravage Gaza, we ask ‘What would it look like for Australia to respond in love and compassion?’
Join us as we continue to listen to and amplify the voices of Palestinian refugees, and as we call on our nation’s leaders to act justly and generously; to provide welcome and care to those who have been forced to search of safety.
