Prayers
for Peacemakers, September 17, 2014

Pray
for the people of Iraq as the U.S. and its allies enlist the same military
solutions for the violence currently afflicting the people of
Iraq and Iraqi Kurdistan that gave rise to the violence in the first place.

And should I not be concerned about Nineveh, that great city, in which there are more than a
hundred and twenty thousand persons who do not know their right hand from their left, and
also many animals?” Jonah 4:11
