London and Oxford: Christ Under the Rubble - A Vigil for Gaza
Revd Munther Isaac, pastor of the Lutheran Christmas Church in Bethlehem will be leading this Vigil for Gaza - a service of prayer, music, readings, poetry and silence - on Sunday, 18 February from 2pm-4pm, at Bloomsbury Central Baptist Church, 235 Shaftesbury Ave, London, WC2H 8EP
The service will begin with a 30-minute reflection by Revd Dr Munther Isaac, speaking about the current situation in Gaza and the West Bank and how the worldwide church should respond.
"I am traveling to the UK to call the church to be the church, and to act in costly solidarity towards an immediate and comprehensive ceasefire. This is a moral obligation. This is not the time for neutrality or soft diplomacy." Revd Dr Munther Isaac
