Seven bishops from around the world, including the archbishop of Rabat, Morocco, Cardinal Crist\u00f3bal L\u00f3pez Romero, have also joined.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Not \u2018against anyone\u2019<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Speaking on behalf of the network, Father Pietro Rossini, an Xaverian missionary, said: \u201cWe cannot remain silent in the face of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryknollmagazine.org\/2025\/07\/pope-condemns-violence-in-middle-east-calls-for-end-to-barbarity\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the tragedy affecting the Palestinian population<\/a> in Gaza and the Occupied Territories. We do not speak as politicians but as pastors, as leaders of communities who believe in the Gospel and in the dignity of every human life. We do not represent only ourselves but also the communities entrusted to our care as shepherds in the Catholic Church.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Father Rossini added: \u201cOur message is not \u2018against\u2019 anyone but in favor of life and peace. We condemn the logic of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryknollmagazine.org\/2025\/07\/two-dead-holy-family-gaza-pastor-injured-after-mid-morning-israeli-attack\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">war and violence<\/a> wherever it occurs, and we call for respect of international law, United Nations resolutions, and the rulings of the International Criminal Court against those who oppress and extinguish innocent human life.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Condemning both Hamas and Israeli violence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The priest continued: \u201cFor this reason, with the same strength with which we condemn the massacre of Oct. 7 [2023], <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryknollmagazine.org\/2023\/10\/pope-calls-for-release-of-hostages-shows-concern-for-gaza\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">the killings and kidnappings<\/a> carried out by Hamas terrorists, we condemn even more strongly the disproportionate response, the violence, the killing of innocent people unjustifiably excused as \u2018unintentional errors\u2019 (as even the Italian president of the Republic has stated), the bombings of sovereign third countries, the war crimes, ethnic cleansing, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryknollmagazine.org\/2025\/08\/conflict-in-gaza-12000-children-suffer-from-acute-malnutrition\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">use of starvation as a weapon of extermination<\/a>, and the genocide being carried out by the State of Israel against the Palestinian population.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Father Rossini said the priests \u201cfeel the urgency to give voice to those who have none, to the innocent victims who cry out for justice.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">A call to commitment to peace<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>At the conference, Father Rito Maresca from the Diocese of Sorrento-Castellammare said he felt compelled to join the initiative, describing its founders as \u201cDavid against the Goliath of violence.\u201d Father Nicola Colasuonno, rector of the Shrine of St. Guido Conforti in Parma, said he could no longer bear to see the violence and bombings.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Father Massimo Nevola, superior of the Jesuit house of St. Ignatius in Rome, said he immediately joined the network, already aware of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryknollmagazine.org\/2025\/08\/caritas-calls-man-made-famine-and-assault-on-gaza-city-a-horror\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">situation in the Holy Land<\/a>. He said the president of the Italian Bishops\u2019 Conference did not officially endorse the initiative, since he represents all bishops, but neither did he oppose it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Prayer service to be held in Rome next week<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The network adopted a logo created by artist Gianluca Costantini, bearing the English phrase: \u201cChrist died <a href=\"https:\/\/www.maryknollmagazine.org\/2025\/01\/caritas-people-of-gaza-dying-a-slow-death\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">in Gaza<\/a>.\u201d The drawing is inspired by a real image of a Palestinian mother mourning her deceased son, Mohammed Zakaria.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first public event of the network is scheduled for Sept. 22 in Rome, on the eve of the closing session of the United Nations General Assembly. A prayer will be held in the Church of St. Andrew on the Quirinal followed by a march with several stops where testimonies of Palestinian lives will be read, ending at Montecitorio, where the Chamber of Italian Deputies is located.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>During the march, prayers will be recited, including the \u201cOur Father\u201d in Arabic. About 50 priests are expected to participate in the first gathering.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><em>Featured image: A boy cries during the Aug. 14, 2025, funeral of Palestinians killed in an Israeli airstrike while seeking aid in Gaza City, Gaza Strip, according to medics.
