- Notes
- Israel is in the process of building a wall or separation fence which is says is needed to protect them from suicide bombers. "Church leaders in the region are vehemently opposed to the barrier's construction. Bishop Riah Abu El-Assal, the Episcopal bishop in Jerusalem, warns that Israelis are fencing themselves in as well. `The best of secure borders are reconciled neighbours, and the closest of neighbours are the Palestinians. Those fences and walls will not only encircle Palestinian towns and add to the grudges, but they will also close the Israeli community into a kind of ghetto,' he said. `The root cause of all of this business of building walls is the occupation. Once the Israelis quit occupying the lands of others, then they can hope for and receive the security they so desire. This is not the time to build walls. This is the time to build bridges. And only if they learn how to build a bridge rather than a wall will they guarantee themselves security, peace and stability,' the bishop said." The farmers of Jayyous are protesting the building of the wall which cuts them off from their fertile fields and the town's wells. Their protest is supported by international members of the Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme in Palestine and Israel, coordinated by the World Council of Churches.

- "The wood of olive trees uprooted near Bethlehem during the ongoing Israeli-Palestinian crisis is transformed into an emblem of hope and reconciliation. On the shores of the Aegean Sea, a small craft delivered a cross of olive wood from Bethlehem at morning prayer on the first day of the Conference on World Mission and Evangelism (CWME) near Athens [9-16 May 2005]. It came as a gift from the Christian churches of Jerusalem, a reminder of the birthplace of Christianity and the contemporary struggles of the people there. An ecumenical delegation also presented cross-shaped pendants for each participant, The crosses, large and small, had been fashioned from olive trees uprooted in and around the city of Bethlehem, from Palestinian land that was confiscated as barriers were constructed." "The Right Rev. Riah Abu El-Assal, Anglican bishop of Jerusalem and the Holy Land, brought greetings from the Christians of the Holy Land as well as `from all those who are working to make peace in the Middle East'."
