Prayers for Peacemakers, January 27, 2016
Pray for the Hebron family who were caught in the middle
when Israeli settlers invaded the houses on right and left of their home with
the collusion of the Israeli authorities this week. Although security forces eventually evacuated
them, Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu has said he will authorize the settlers’
return. When settlers move next to
Palestinian homes, they often use violent harassment to make life unbearable to
their Palestinian neighbors to force them to leave.

| Rescue me, O my God, from the hand of the wicked, from the grasp of the unjust and cruel. For you, O Lord, are my hope, my trust, O LORD, from my youth. Psalm 71:4-5 |
