Canadian Friends of Sabeel We are a Canadian Christian voice for Palestinian liberation. We are a Christian voice for Palestinian Liberation!

NECEF Sabeel Canada (Canadian Friends of Sabeel) responds to calls for solidarity from the Palestinian community by faithfully engaging, educating and equipping the Canadian Christian community and our partners as we pursue our shared calling and vision. Our vision is to energize the Canadian Christian community as we pursue a durable peace – rooted in justice, freedom, equal rights, and the principles of nonviolence. Our efforts are guided by the Christian values and principles of non-violence, justice, peace, and solidarity. We work with communities of all faiths and like-minded organizations with similar values to tell the truth.

The patriarchs and heads of churches in Jerusalem have released a new statement condemning the recent settler attack in Taybeh. Read the statement now through the LinkTree in our bio.

Statement by the Patriarchs and Heads of Churches in Jerusalem on the Settler Attack in Taybeh.
"This wild attack on the Christian village of Taybeh and against its peaceful population is not an isolated incident. In the past weeks the Palestinian villages of the West Bank have been exposed to a wide-scale terror by settlers, which is reaching a peak during this time of the olive harvest, when families go to their lands to collect what they need to live and renew their generations-long bond with their lands. In this regard, we consider the religious ruling recently published, allowing Jews to take the olives of Palestinians, as unfounded, very worrying and dangerous, and absolutely unacceptable. We very much appreciate that several rabbis and Jewish voices have publicly rejected it."

We’ve extended our deadline to sign our open letter calling on the Canadian government to take stronger action in response to Israel’s violations of international law. Help us reach 100 signatures before Friday by reading, signing, sharing, the open letter through the LinkTree in our bio.

From December 27th to December 31st, Christ at the Checkpoint is welcoming Christians from around the world to learn from Palestinian Christians, celebrate Christmas in Bethlehem, and rediscover the good news of Christ as God’s answer to violence, fear, and division. More information can be found here: christatthecheckpoint.com/

Emmanuel, we believe that justice is love made public. We pray for organizers and participants of this conference, that they may encounter and be transformed by your presence amongst the checkpoints, the borders, and all spaces where your oppressed dwell. Lord, strengthen the will and hope of all who are working for goodness.

Lord in your mercy…hear our prayer

CFOS welcomes the announcement by the Canadian government that, together with European allies, Canada intends to impose a ban on the import of goods from illegal Israeli settlements in Palestine. This marks the first time that the Canadian government has employed economic sanctions against Israel for violations of international law.

While these sanctions are significant, we believe they are not enough. Canada’s diplomatic and economic response must match the severity of the violence Israel continues to inflict on Palestinians in Gaza and the West Bank, with full recognition that Israel is in violation of international law, the Geneva Conventions, and UN resolutions.

Canada continues to contribute to and benefit from the occupation through investments, arms transfers, charitable tax breaks, and other means. Canada must impose sanctions strong enough to respond to these realities and to end Israel’s illegal occupation and its
systems of apartheid, ethnic cleansing, and genocide.

Sabeel and other Palestinian Christian organizations have been calling on us to support BDS. Our open letter calls on the Canadian government to impose stronger, broader sanctions against Israel for its breaches of international law.

Add your name to the open letter before October 18, 2026: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSfoutWRY9vYaREI-HlOe5SwaWtGKkhq-a537McdeBw4GppsLQ/viewform?usp=dialog

Earlier this month, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Iceland, Ireland, Norway, Poland, Portugal, Spain, Sweden, and the UK confirmed their intention to support sanctions against Israeli settlements, which are illegal under international law. In response, Israel ordered the UK Consulate in occupied East Jerusalem to close within 30 days.

Holy God, we pray that more and more leaders will act with wisdom and courage to pursue just and lasting peace. Continue to hear the cry of the oppressed suffering from settler violence and deliver us from the many forms of oppression. Lord, we remember the words of Prophet Isaiah: “Help us learn to do right; seek justice. Defend the oppressed. Take up the cause of the fatherless; plead the case of the widow.” (Isaiah 1:17)

Lord in your mercy…hear our prayer
