Prayers for Peacemakers, September 18, 2013

Pray for the people of Iraqi Kurdistan who are currently
facing violent attacks as part of the parliamentary election campaign.  Pray also that the U.N. election
monitors will observe the voting process carefully and transparently to ensure
that the elections are not corrupted.
