“We follow Jesus of Nazareth, the Prince of Peace.
We are a people of peace, yesterday, today and tomorrow.
We say 'no' to war, for war has no power to save us.
We strive to embody the command to love God and neighbor.”
Presbyterian Peace Foundation has had a long and abiding concern for the Middle East, seeking a just peace for all in the region.

From the PC(USA) Office of Public Witness:
"As people of faith, we turn to the practice of lament that guides our prayers and leads us to action. We join our voice with the Psalmist, 'Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord; Lord, hear my voice!' (Psalm 130:1). May God hear the voices of those in Israel and Palestine experiencing unprecedented suffering and escalating violence. May the cries of our partners and care for humanity lead us from prayer to action."
