Prayers for Peacemakers, March 6, 2013

Pray for strength for First
Nations women in leadership roles in their communities and in grass roots social
justice work. Pray for Canadian settlers to effectively deter the colonial
oppression of predatory sexual assault by non-native men against First Nations
women.
