Dreaming of Home

If you were forced to flee your home, what would you take with you? Photographs for memories? Documents for identity? Food for sustenance? Almost certainly you would carry with you the hope of a future home where we can all break bread together in peace.

We all dream of home

This year, tens of thousands of people living in Gaza have been forced to leave their homes. Many times over. We stand with them, and with those peace-loving people in Israel who want to create a homeland they can share. 

Daoud Nassar broke bread with us from the Tent of Nations, his family farm outside Bethlehem where their ancestral land is under threat. Bethlehem was the birthplace of Jesus. The name means ‘House of Bread’. And bread was the centre of our meeting.
