We pray for
the quick cessation of violence around the world especially in Greece, where
the confrontations between youth and police led to the shooting of a young boy.
We also pray for the women in the conflict zone of eastern D.R. Congo who are
helplessly subjected to extreme forms of violence carried out by rebel
soldiers.
We pray for
all Muslim communities around the world as they celebrate the Eid al-Adha, the
Feast of Sacrifice, this week. We pray for the safety of those who celebrate in
areas of conflict and tension.
We lift up the deplorable humanitarian
situation in Gaza today due to the ongoing siege. We call upon churches around
the world to join together in prayer for all the needy families, for the
Christian community living in Gaza, and for organizations struggling to enter
Gaza in order to distribute humanitarian aid.
As Christmas
approaches, we pray that as Christians, our hearts will be awakened to the
needs in our communities. May our prayers and financial contributions make a
difference in people’s lives.
