Prayers for Peacemakers, August 14, 2014

Give thanks for the people of Asubpeeschoseewagong/Grassy
Narrows First Nation, who continue to stay on their land, host delegations, put
on events like River Run, and pass on their traditions to their children in
spite of legal, social, educational, corporate systems that are stacked against
them.
