Video: Shine a Light for the Diocese of Jerusalem Appeal to be Launched This Evening
The United Dioceses of Dublin and Glendalough will officially launch our Shine a Light for the Diocese of Jerusalem appeal this evening, Monday December 4 2023, in St Ann’s Church, Dawson Street, Dublin 2, at 6.30pm. The launch will be followed by a Vigil for Peace in St Ann’s. All are welcome to attend both events.
The appeal will raise funds for our partners in the Anglican Diocese of Jerusalem in their outreach to those impacted by the current war.
In this video Archbishop Michael Jackson talks about the appeal.
The Anglican Diocese of Jerusalem is home to about 7,000 Anglicans. It is also responsible for more than 30 institutions, including hospitals, schools, clinics and rehabilitation centres which welcome all people regardless of their faith or background. These include Al–Ahli Arab

The Diocese and its institutions support all who come to them, regardless of faith and background. This is part of their Christian service in the Holy Land.
