Condemnation of recent terrorist attacks in Israel and call for peaceful resolution

The Pilgrimage Groups unequivocally condemns the recent despicable terrorist attacks orchestrated in recent times in the Middle East. We express our deepest condolences to the families of the innocent victims, including women and children, who tragically lost their lives in these acts of violence. We are deeply saddened by the immense loss and tragedy caused by these attacks, with over 1000 innocent lives, being brutally taken away.

Furthermore, we condemn the reprehensible act of kidnapping innocent individuals, including foreigners which only serves to fuel animosity and disrupt international peace and security.

We suggest and advocate that Israelis and Palestinians should peaceably co-exist as both lineages can be traced to the patriarch Abraham. “If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone.” (Romans 12:18).

However, amidst the turmoil and suffering, we fervently appeal to both parties involved in this conflict to exercise maximum self-restraint and actively work towards fostering peace and harmony between the Israelis and Palestinians. We firmly believe that through open dialogue, understanding, and a mutual commitment to peaceful coexistence, a sustainable resolution to this deep-rooted conflict can be achieved.

We urge all parties to place the preservation of innocent lives at the forefront and abstain from any further acts of violence. It is our staunch conviction that resorting to violence and aggression will only perpetuate suffering and hinder any chances of achieving lasting peace.

The Church in Ghana remains ready to extend any necessary assistance towards reconciliation and peace building efforts. We offer our heartfelt prayers, support, and solidarity to all those affected by this heart-wrenching situation.

We pray that the wisdom and guidance of God lead all parties involved in their pursuit of a peaceful resolution. May His peace, surpassing all understanding, prevail over the Israeli-Palestinian region, bringing healing, unity, and restoration to the Land.
