Today we handed in our #AdventNotArms petition to UK Govt representatives at the FCDO.
The FCDO heard how important the issue of suspending arms sales to Israel and a meaningful ceasefire are to Christians this Advent. And that almost 600 emails have been sent to MPs from Embrace supporters.
Please write to your MP to call for the UK Gov to suspend arms sales to Israel and push further for a ceasefire for all. #AdventNotArms
We urge you to do this ahead of a parliamentary debate on arms sales to Israel on Monday 16 Dec.

Quote on a background of a bombed out residential building. "In this sacred season, as we ponder the words of the angels, 'Peace on earth', may these words become our mandate. When will the world realise that war and arms cannot bring peace?" - Rev Munther Isaac, pastor of the Evangelical Christmas Lutheran Church in Bethlehem.

All wars end. When it’s no longer in interests of the powers that be to keep it going, this war will end too. But for the sake of the innocents and for goodness, let’s demand more from our government NOW.
