Prayers for Peacemakers, August 20, 2014

Pray for migrant and refugee children who come to Greece without their parents.  Even if they have a family member with them, the authorities separate them if that family member is not a parent.  Last week, volunteers working on the Mediterranean Project that CPT Europe supports spoke with a twelve to thirteen year old Afghan boy who was crying because the authorities were going to hold him for a longer period by himself in the Moria Detention Center, even though he had been traveling with an aunt.

When she opened it, she saw the child.  He was crying, and she took pity on him, “This must be
 one of the Hebrews’ children,” she said. Exodus 2:6

Will you host a dinner party for CPT?

CPT really needs your support in raising $10k in September. Unfortunately, we are behind our financial targets and need your help. We want to dedicate the month of September to bringing people together around the dinner table. You can choose the date, who you invite and what you cook (though our teams have some great recipes prepared!) We’d love to hear if you’d be interested. 

There’s no commitment needed at this stage.
