Subject: Gaza – Catholic Church – a shelter – Please tell Israel not to bomb it.
To: john.baird@parl.gc.ca

“Dear Minister Baird,
I have just learned that a Catholic Church in Gaza has been contacted by the Israeli authorities with a warning to evacuate prior to a plan to bomb the local neighbourhood this evening (click here).

However, the church is a shelter for various people including older adults and disabled children. They cannot be moved from the church.

Please contact the Israeli authorities, explaining the situation and asking that they not bomb the church or any other such shelter for civilians.

Thank you for considering this request,

Sherry Ann
Edmonton, Alberta”

Action: Please write to Foreign Minister John Baird (see email address above) and use Twitter, and other social media as soon as possible.
