The Nakba

“What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God.” - Micah 6:8

To understand the root causes of the unrest in the Holy Land come to this event:

NAKBA - Remembering Palestine's 1948 Disaster and Mothers March - Walking in Solidarity

SATURDAY MAY 11 ,2024

1:00 pm BRIDGE SQUARE

The Nakba is the expulsion of over 750,000 Palestinians from their homes and land, and the destruction of Palestinian society during the creation of the State of Israel – a destruction that continues today – an ongoing Nakba.

The Palestinian Nakba (catastrophe) of 1948 has been called the poisonous root of all that has plagued the Holy Land since that time, with a never-ending impact that pervades the Middle East and the entire world.

Check out this video produced by United Methodists (umkr.org): Knowing the Nakba: The Ethnic Cleansing of Palestine for the Creation of the State of Israel (youtube.com) – The video is linked from the Micah page on our church website.
