Archbishop of Canterbury calls for end to Gaza violence

The Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby, head of the Anglican Church, issues a statement on his website calling on Israeli and Hamas leaders “to immediately end the violence, and urges Anglican churches both to pray and offer support to all victims of the conflict.”

The archbishop says “You can’t look at the pictures coming from Gaza and Israel without your heart breaking.”

“We must cry to God and beat down the doors of heaven and pray for peace and justice and security.”
