Clergy & Churches Call to Action
For the past two years we have produced a video showing Christians holding signs calling for an end to the injustice in the Holy Land. This year on the International Day of Peace, Sunday 21st September during the World Week for Peace in Palestine and Israel (20-26 September) we are once again calling all clergy and churches to do this simple action. The action will be two-fold:
1/ print out these signs or make similar ones (please note, new signs have been added to those in the last Wrap); take a photo of church folk holding them; email them to Nell – contact@pien.org.au by Monday 29th September.
2/ once the video is produced, everyone who participated in holding signs will be asked to share the video with their Federal Member of Parliament, the Foreign Minister and the Prime Minister.
Watch last year’s video. Our aim is to double the number of participating churches.
Open Letter to the Prime Minister
This ad appeared in The Age and The Sydney Morning Herald on Wednesday 6 August 2025. PIEN was pleased to be a signatory, along with other Christian, Jewish and Muslim organisations.

To stay Is to bear witness…
To stay is to love…
To stay is to be Church…
Hope beyond resignation…”
‘Turkey Cuts All Ties With Israel — Ports, Airspace, and Trade Closed Over Gaza Genocide‘
Turkey has severed $7 billion in trade with Israel.
“The commercial hit is already showing. Turkish port authorities have reportedly begun demanding written assurances from shipping agents that their vessels are not linked to Israel and not carrying hazardous or military cargo bound for the country. It’s a boycott mechanism – enforced at the level of ports and harbours – designed to squeeze Israel’s supply chains. “
‘When the World Stays Silent, We Set Sail‘
Last week a Global Sumud Flotilla set sail with a fleet of over 50 ships on their way to Gaza. Once again Greta Thunberg is on board.
“Our efforts build on decades of Palestinian resistance and international solidarity. Though we belong to/hold different nations, faiths, and political beliefs, we are united by a single truth: the siege and genocide must end.”
