The Rev. Fadi Diab, his wife, and one of his sons visited us at Good Shepherd in the summer of 2023, before the Israel-Hamas war began. Listen above to the conversation we had with him that day.
Mary Pneuman of the diocesan Bishop's Committee for Peace and Justice in the Holy Land reports:
We heard last week that sometime around the middle of August, Father Fadi and his son were attacked by settlers on the road near Ramallah and their car windshield and side windows were smashed in. They were very lucky to escape without injury. Both sons are now out of the country, but the situation is increasingly dangerous as there has been a serious upsurge of setter violence since Oct 7. Fadi has been pleading with us to do what we can to make the churches more aware and more active in our response.
Perhaps the best and most immediate way we can help is to donate to the Anglican Diocese of Jerusalem.
