WASHINGTON, DC – Concerned Women for America (CWA) is rejoicing over the Israeli hostages’ return from Hamas captivity.
“Today, we rejoice that all living Israeli hostages have been released from captivity and are being reunited with their families. They have endured horrific evil and trauma, and we pray for them and their families. At the same time, we grieve with the families who lost their loved ones in captivity and urge Hamas to uphold their end of the deal in releasing every hostage — dead and alive,” said Penny Nance, CEO and President, Concerned Women for America.
“We are grateful to President Trump for negotiating this release and pushing for peace in the Middle East. We pray that Israel is protected from further terrorism and that antisemitism will not prevail.
“From working with hostage families, organizing meetings with congressional members, briefing hill staff, holding prayer vigils across the nation, and going to visit the Kibbutzim, Concerned Women for America and Young Women for America have tirelessly worked for and prayed for this moment for the last two years. May there never be another day when evil is visited upon Israel,” said Nance.
