Pray for the Palestinian people. They are subjected everyday to extensive controls by the Israeli Army, as a consequence they cannot walk with freedom in their own land, and they have to modify their schedules regarding school, work and spare time based on these controls. Let us pray together for our Palestinian sisters and brothers, that they are not subjected anymore to this violation of their basic rights.

“The Lord is my light and my salvation -whom shall I fear? The Lord is the stronghold of my life -of whom shall I be afraid?” (Psalm 27: 1)
