Christians in Middle East urge Anglican leader to ‘speak truth to power’

BEIRUT: Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby has been asked by Palestinian Christians to “speak truth to power for the sake of a just and lasting peace” in a letter criticizing the UK Anglican leader over his public statements on the Israel-Hamas war.
Anglicans in the West Bank had accused Welby, leader of the global Anglican church, of downgrading their plight.
Jerusalem’s Palestinian Christians restated their criticism in a letter as well, the Guardian reported on Friday.
