Orthodox Patriarchate Seminary in Jerusalem urges “know your neighbor”

Mount Zion, located just outside the current walls of the Old City, via Zion Gate, is of great importance to Christians because this is the area of Dormition Abbey, the Cenacle (the traditional spot for remembering the Last Supper and washing of the Apostles’ feet), and where the Holy Spirit descended upon them in the event of Pentecost.

Entre los escombros resuenan palabras de firmeza

“No nos iremos de Gaza mientras haya una iglesia en pie”.

“No seremos los últimos cristianos que vivan en Gaza”.

“Lo hemos perdido todo, pero no podemos perder nuestra misión ni nuestra pertenencia a este lugar que tanto amamos”.

“El cristianismo empezó aquí y aquí seguirá”.  

Estas son algunas de las frases que escucha Nader Abu Amsha, director ejecutivo del Departamento de Servicios a los Refugiados Palestinos del Consejo de Iglesias del Oriente Medio (DSRP-MECC), mientras intenta ayudar a los refugiados simplemente a llegar con vida al día siguiente.

We won’t leave Gaza as long as there is a standing church.” 

We will not be the last Christians living in Gaza.” “

We lost everything, but we can’t lose our mission and our belonging to this place dear to our hearts.”

Christianity started here and will continue to be here.”  

These are the words people are uttering as Nader Abu Amsha, executive director of Department of Services to Palestinian Refugees of the Middle East Council of Churches (DSPR-MECC), tries to help them simply survive the next day.
