Prayers for Peacemakers, January 1

By demo

January 1, 2015

Pray for the New Year that is arriving to every community that CPT accompanies. Pray for the farmers and their crops in El Guayabo, Colombia. Pray for Palestinians and their territory. Pray for Turtle Island and the Indigenous peoples in Canada. Pray for the displaced people in Iraqi-Kurdistan. Pray for the work that CPT is starting in Europe. Pray for all and each one of them.
