Lord, we thank
you that some help has made it to the people of Yarmouk camp, but we recognize
the immense need still present and ask that you keep the way open for relief to
come to these people. We also pray for those caught in the airstrikes in Aleppo
and implore you to put an end to these indiscriminate and merciless killings. Lord
in your mercy…
Over the
weekend, Israeli settlers near Ramallah uprooted over one thousand newly
planted olive trees, transforming this symbol of peace into a tool of
oppression. Lord, we pray a special prayer of blessing and protection for
Palestinian farmers, knowing that these people who work so closely with your
creation often face the most pointed injustices. Please bless the farmers with
rain, productivity, safety, and joy in your nature. Lord in your mercy…
Gracious God, in
light of World Cancer Day on Tuesday, we join together to pray for people
around the world suffering from cancer. Please heal,
comfort, and dwell with those who have lost loved ones and those currently
afflicted. Lord in your mercy…

your blessing on all of Sabeel’s programs this week, including a youth program
in Jerusalem on Friday, Sabeel Nazareth’s family retreat this weekend in Jenin,
