The Church of England General Synod debated Motion GS 2451A on Sunday, titled 'Standing in solidarity for a just peace in Israel and Palestine.' The motion was brought by the Carlisle Diocesan and references the Kairos II text. The Kairos II text describes Israel as 'a colonial enterprise built on racism.' The motion calls for engagement with the document.
Synod members discussed the motion during the session.
The body then postponed any vote until November. Archbishop Sarah Mullally addressed the General Synod at Church House in London on February 10, 2026, in an illustrative capacity.
