We are happy to join you again in the wave of prayer after the summer
break throughout the month of August. The Sabeel staff are back from their
vacation feeling refreshed and rested, to carry forward the ministry of Sabeel
with renewed energy and vigour. We pray that they will be guided by
your Spirit in their work and as they do their planning and visioning for
the months ahead.
September is here and with it the beginning of the new school-year. It cheers the heart to see the hopeful faces of the school children as they go back to their school benches. We pray that this year will be a peaceful one, and that they will be able to reach their schools safely and without delays, despite the obstacles in their way: the wall, the checkpoints, the searches, the gates and the closures.
The beginning of September marked the end of the month of Ramadan, the month of fasting and prayer for our Muslim brothers and sisters. Sabeel extends its heartfelt congratulations on the occasion of Eid-el-Fitr, to the Muslim and Arab world with our best wishes for peace and prosperity.
We pray for the upcoming witness visit from the 14th to the 22nd of September. This year we have a small group of eight people joining the tour. We pray for an enriching and fruitful visit that will enable the participants to see and learn, first hand, the situation on the ground. We pray that they will go back inspired and encouraged to continue the work of justice and peace for this troubled land. We also remember in our prayers all the people who helped organize this witness visit.
The countdown to the meeting of the UN General assembly has started. As we approach this crucial juncture in our history, we pray that the Palestinian Leadership will go well prepared to submit their just petition for Statehood before the international forum. We pray that the world body of nations will rise to its responsibility and accept Palestine as a member state alongside the other states of the world.
With the World Council of Churches we pray for Albania, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Slovenia
