SUMMER 2025
Presented by Saint Mark’s Visual Arts Ministry and Sacred Spaces, this new exhibit features artwork by children from Gaza and Ukraine, offering a glimpse into the realities of war through the eyes of the young. The display will be located in the back of the cathedral nave near the coffee/cookie corner.
All are invited to an opening reception immediately following the 11 a.m. service on July 13, with remarks from D’Vorah Kost and Rev. Mark Miller. Refreshments will be generously provided by the Bishop’s Committee for Peace in the Middle East, including volunteer contributions and Syrian catering.
UDPATE: D’vorah Kost, one of the organizers of Healing & Hope in War Zones, has shared the GoFundMe of Wejdan Diab, the teacher working in Cairo with the Gazan children who created many of the artworks in the exhibition. Learn more and make a donation to support her work here.
D’vorah also commends the following organizations to those who wish to support relief efforts in Gaza: IMRelief , which delivers aid directly, and the organization HealPalestine.org
As always, you are encouraged to donate to the American Friends of the Episcopal Diocese of Jerusalem, either directly or through the cathedral’s giving page at saintmarks.org/give (select “Holy Land Humanitarian Relief” from the list of options).
