Ruth said, “Don’t urge me to leave you, and to return from following you, for where you go, I will go; and where you stay, I will stay. Your people will be my people, and your God my God.

Ruth 1:16 World English Bible

Reflection

Jewish neighbours face growing hostility, fear, and prejudice, creating deep anxiety within local synagogues, schools, and gathering places. Believers must actively dismantle hatred, stand in visible solidarity, and offer practical protection whenever intolerance surfaces. Honouring our shared heritage requires genuine friendship, public support, and courageous defence of those targeted by ancient animosities. By extending warmth, rejecting harmful rhetoric, and building trusted relationships, local congregations manifest divine grace, ensuring every community member experiences safety, dignity, and unwavering care.

Prayer

Pray for Christians to firmly reject all types of anti-semitism and to show unwavering support for their Jewish communities.
