Saying “Congress won’t eat until Gaza eats,” over 60 Christians from across the U.S. are nonviolently blockading the Senate Cafeteria to pressure the Senate & staffers to support a permanent ceasefire in Gaza, restore aid to UNRWA, & end military funding to Israel. #CFPAction
All those arrested are free! TY to all sharing resource, time, presence, prayers, & care bc the solidarity & community matters. To us. To God. For the sake of our collective liberation. May the wheel of injustice turned by Christian Zionism & US militarism be broken 🍉 #CFPAction
Thanks to Miranda Nazzaro for writing about today’s #CFPAction for The Hill
Dozens of Gaza protestors arrested in Senate office building thehill.com/blogs/blog-bri…
Today, we joined Christians for a Free Palestine's powerful action to disrupt Congress's lunch in solidarity with Gaza.
They are demanding Congress stops arming Israel, restores UNRWA funding, and calls for a lasting ceasefire.
Over 50 people in the group were arrested.
I’ll be leading this brief midday prayer time for Christians for a Free Palestine’s #CFPAction . You should join us!
“Blessed are Gazans, woe to the Biden Administration!”
These powerful words were shared as peaceful protesters with #CFPAction were arrested & taken away by the police for calling attention to the complicity of Christian Zionism & US militarism in the genocidal assault on Gaza.
This shouted me and I hope this speaks to so many others.
I also hope outlets like Al Jazeera English CBS News NBC News ABC News POLITICO Teen Vogue BBC News (World) The New York Times The Washington Post The Guardian & others cover this.
Feel free to tag people or outlets and share broadly!
“The Senate & their staff will not be dining today until the people of Gaza eat & are safe. We are here to pray blessings for the food that Congress will send to Gaza when they do the right thing. We are here to call attention to what is wrong…” #CFPAction participant Nichola T.
Love means we want permanent #CeasefireNOW , an end to genocide, a restoration of aid and resources, an end to US military support and Christian Zionism, and lasting, just peace for our Palestinian and Israeli kindred.
Join me & the beloveds Christians for a Free Palestine if you can today.
It’s ok if you aren’t able to make it to DC for the in-person action because the homies Christians for a Free Palestine are up to good trouble online.
Join us for communion, phone banking & prayer wherever you are, as you are. 🍉
#ceasefirenow #blessedarethepeacemakers #foodnotbombs

My loves Christians for a Free Palestine are rallying folks for in-person & online action on April 8-9. If you’re in or can make it to DC, that’d be dope. If you’re elsewhere you can get plugged in online. Regardless of where you are, get involved and tell your people to get involved too!!!
