Under the motto “On the way to our people in Palestine”, Pope Tawadros II, patriarch of the Coptic Orthodox Church, has launched an initiative to send humanitarian aid to Gaza.
The first of that aid was a truck-full of relief material that joined a convoy of aid heading to Gaza.
The Coptic Orthodox Bishopric of Public, Ecumenical, and Social Services (BLESS), headed by Anba Yulius, took charge of fulfilling the Pope’s initiative, working in collaboration with the National Alliance for Civil Work.
The contents of the truck included blankets, mattresses, winter clothes for children, and other necessities, which were collected at the BLESS headquarter in the Cairo suburb of Nasr City. Anba Yulius, along with Church servants, as well as girls and boys from the Church scouts, prepared the aid material.
The Coptic Church’s initiative comes in response to the call by Egypt’s President Abdel-Fattah al-Sisi for Egyptians to support the Palestinian people under the war’s these difficult circumstances.
The Coptic Church incessantly prays for an end to the fighting in Gaza, and for peace in the region: “The Lord is able to alleviate all pain and distress”.
