The Patriarch then comments that the outbreak of war “has not only caused death, destruction and hunger in Gaza,” but has also brought with it “high unemployment,” especially in the area of ​​the city of Bethlehem. Furthermore, Cardinal Pizzaballa points out that the drama of violence has affected “countless families of different religions” and all Catholic institutions in the region, including schools.

“In Gaza, our material resources have extended beyond our walls to include our suffering neighbors and those who have taken refuge elsewhere. The spirit of coordination has been evident, since local actors have also extended a hand to us,” he says.

In that sense, he indicates that in the Holy Land they share practically everything, “from food and water to medicines and supplies,” and adds that these complicated times have allowed them to learn that to rebuild the physical world, one must first “build and protect the trust between people.”
