EMERGENCY EPISODE: Famine in Gaza, A Plea for Compassion

In this emergency episode, we bring urgent attention to the escalating humanitarian crisis in Gaza. With severe food shortages affecting nearly the entire population, and close to half a million people thought to already be suffering the most severe stage of famine, we hone in on the consequence of nearly two months of a near complete blockage of aid flows into the territory that now endangers an entire people. Please join us with our urgent plea for compassion. Suggested Intention Focus With the deteriorating and perilous situation brining nearly Gaza’s entire population to the point of starvation, we suggest holding as an urgent intention: We will that the hearts and minds of all who have influence and affect decisions on the flow or otherwise of humanitarian aid into Gaza will be moved with deep compassion for the millions of innocent people who are suffering or facing starvation there.
