An increasing number of religious groups are working for peace. Many Jewish, Christian, and Muslim organizations use a variety of tactics to lower the level of violence and bring the two sides to the negotiating table. (from http://www.ifamericansknew.org/cur_sit/rel-act-articles.html)

The USCCB provides resources for each of these four action areas:

pray for the Mother Church of Jerusalem,
go on pilgrimage to the Holy Land,
persuade political leaders to work for a just peace, and
support projects to strengthen the local Church in the Holy Land.
