Stop UK arms sales to Saudi Arabia

You are here: Home / Stop UK arms sales to Saudi Arabia

We are calling on the UK Government to stop arms sales to Saudi Arabia, in the light of the huge humanitarian impact of the war in Yemen.

You can find out more about the crisis in Yemen by following the links below:

Peacemaking: A Christian Vocation

Jesus called us to be peacemakers, both in terms of preventing bloodshed as well as building constructive links with God, ourselves and other people.

In 2006 the Methodist and United Reformed Churches produced a report titled ‘Peacemaking: A Christian vocation’. This explores a Christian perspective on peace and conflict in the context of new challenges facing us today.
