Prayers for Peacemakers, 13 September 2013

Pray that the governing bodies of Canada, New Brunswick, and the Southwestern
Energy (SWN) corporation recognize the historic right of the Original Peoples
of the Wabanaki-Mi’gmag District of Signigtog to evict SWN from their unceded
lands and demand compensation for the damage its operations have caused.
