The contribution of Gaza’s shrinking Christian community to the relief effort in Gaza is acting as a unique witness to its locals, according to a mission worker.

In an exclusive interview with en, Hanna Massad, head of Christian Mission to Gaza (CMG), spoke of how Gaza’s believers are working to make a difference as the war between Hamas and the Israeli Defence Forces (IDF) rages on.

Massad revealed that while churches are doing their best to provide support through the provision of cooked meals and basic supplies to struggling families, they cannot provide any guarantees of safety within their often-damaged premises, where many take refuge.
