Lord, we continue to lift the Syrian people up to you,
but especially wish to pray for the safety of the International Committee of
the Red Cross and Syrian Arab Red Crescent members who were kidnapped in northern
Syria this week. We pray that you would protect them, and empower the brave
people working to help those in need. Lord in your mercy…
Merciful God, we also wish to lift the residents of
the Yarmouk refugee camp in Damascus up to you. This Palestinian camp has been
under siege for the past six months, leading to dire conditions with people
lacking basic supplies and even dying of starvation. Lord, we pray for an end
to the siege, an end to the war, and a lasting peace over the entire region.
Lord in your mercy…
In the wake of increased attacks by settlers, we pray
that you would protect and bless Palestinian farmers during the olive harvest. Imbue
them with your peace so they may take joy in the productivity of this time. Lord
in your mercy…
Lord, we pray your blessing on Sabeel’s Young Women’s
Meeting this Friday. We thank you for this opportunity to raise up new leaders
among Palestinian women, and pray for the meeting to go smoothly. We also pray
your blessing on Sabeel Nazareth’s programs for the week, and we thank you for
your continued presence in Sabeel’s activities. Lord in your mercy…
Lord, we pray along with the World Council of Churches
for the countries of Bangladesh, Bhutan, and Nepal. Lord in your mercy…
