Many Quaker organizations, meetings, and churches are sharing their concern around the war in Gaza, the devastating humanitarian crisis there, and the broader violence escalating across the Middle East. This is crucial moment to speak truth to Congress and urge our representatives to support a permanent ceasefire now, humanitarian access, and an end to U.S. military support for this disastrous war. 

This is a crucial moment to urge Congress to support a permanent ceasefire now.

FCNL is collecting and sharing these minutes, statements, and other resources from Quakers about the need for the U.S. to secure a ceasefire to end the suffering and violence in Gaza and throughout the region.  

In Quaker meetings and churches, meeting minutes represent the wording of a decision or an agreed upon action to be taken by the meeting or church. FCNL recognizes the importance of meeting minutes both as advocacy tools and as a means of communicating to members of Congress how their constituents are thinking and acting on a particular issue.

If your organization, church, or meeting has approved a minute, statement, or resource on the war in Gaza, please email it to Quakers@fcnl.org to include it in this collection. The Quaker Engagement team will follow up with you to offer support in sharing your minute or statement with your members of Congress as another way to change public policy through faith-in-action. You can use this cover sheet to send in to your member of Congress.
