About Sabeel-Kairos

Sabeel-Kairos UK is a campaigning Christian charity that works for human rights, justice and equality for Palestinians in partnership/solidarity with the Christian community in the Holy Land.

Our vision

We believe in justice and self-determination for the Palestinian people, where every Palestinian lives in freedom, with their human rights, security and dignity recognised and respected.

We want to see a thriving Palestinian Church, which is increasing in both number and impact in Palestinian society.

We need Churches and Christians in the UK and worldwide to be part of realising this vision, and to campaign, pray and stand in costly solidarity with Palestinian Christians to achieve this.

Our mission

We journey with our partners, Sabeel Jerusalem and Kairos Palestine on the long road to justice, offering steadfast solidarity with Palestinian Christians as they seek to remain a Christian presence in the Holy Land, under the extreme pressures of the illegal Israeli occupation and apartheid system. We amplify their voices and calls to the Western church for repentance and action.

Our activities

Here are the main ways that we seek to achieve our vision and mission alongside our partners:

  • Raise-awareness of the injustices being experienced by the Palestinian people. We do this through organising solidarity visits to Palestine for key UK influencers with our partner, Sabeel Jerusalem.  We support those Influencers on their return to the UK to tell their audiences what they have seen and heard in Palestine.
  • Bring the voice of Palestinian Christians and Palestinian liberation theology to the UK church to inform and stir people into outspoken, prayerful and campaigning action. We do this by organising delegations of Palestinian Christians to tour the UK as well as sharing our expertise through online and in person educational events.
  • Encourage churches to divest from Israeli apartheid and occupation through our Investing for Peace campaign. We do this by supporting denominational campaign groups to bring motions to their governing church bodies. We also promote the campaigns and aims of the Palestinian BDS movement.
  • Bring a united voice challenging the government through political engagement. We do this by working closely in coalition with other organisations campaigning for Palestine, lobbying MPs and raising awareness in parliament.
