Seeing the crowds, He felt compassion for them, because they were distressed and downcast, like sheep without a shepherd.
- Matthew 9:36
Pray For Gaza
This is a non-political space where anyone is welcome to join us as we pray for those who are suffering in Gaza.
Prayer Points
Several Gazans have died this week due to cold weather and inadequate shelter - PRAY that enough shelter items will get to those who need it most (blankets, tarpaulins and warm clothes)
Due to heavy rains and flooding, many have lost their tents and are once again forced to relocate. PRAY for those affected by flooding.
In spite of the fragile ceasefire, airstrikes and gunfire have killed 386 Gazans. PRAY that the ceasefire will be respected by all sides.
The UN High Commission says Gaza is experiencing "the worse mental health crisis one can imagine... basically everyone is traumatized, especially children." PRAY for the children living with ongoing, severe trauma - for healing and hope.
PRAY that the 20 point peace plan will move forward peacefully.
These prayer points will change and be updated periodically. Last update: December 13th, 2025
First Steps
The immediate and critical need for those in Gaza is food, clean water, shelter and medicine.
Our trusted Christian partners (the Shepherd Society and the Palestinian Bible Society) can securely transfer financial donations directly to the 637 Christians sheltering in the churches in Gaza for food parcels and basic necessities.
