Father Michael Weeder, the Dean of St George’s Cathedral, is fasting in solidarity with Palestine, coinciding with the International Day of Solidarity with the Palestinian People. The Cathedral has a longstanding role as a focal point for protest and unity, and Father Weeder’s fasting journey is a profound display of unity. Despite recent efforts for a ceasefire, continued aggression by the Israeli Defence Forces highlights the need for peace and justice. Father Weeder’s fast exemplifies the transformative power of faith and prayer in articulating despair and inspiring hope.
