We pray for the war victims suffering from
the Philippine government’s decades long confrontation with Muslim separatists
in Mindanao. We pray for the safety of peace actors working in Mindanao and for
an enduring peace settlement among warring parties.
In light of riots and violence that broke out
in the northern city of Akko during the Jewish holidays, we pray that tensions
between Israeli Palestinian and Jewish residents subsides. We pray for all
victims whose homes were torched, and whose family members were arrested and
injured.
We pray for the Sabeel clergy retreat that
will be held in the West Bank from October 19th to the 21st. We pray for all
clergy members and spouses participating in this retreat, so that it may be a
useful time for reflection, sharing, and prayer for local churches.
We pray for the preparations for the Sabeel
international conference on the Nakba that will be held in less than one
month. We pray for all international and local participants attending the
conference so that they will be encouraged to work for justice and peace in
this land.
