Prayers for
Peacemakers, April 1, 2015  Colombia

Pray for the farmers of El Guayabo, Colombia who are
resisting displacement through the ordinary act of planting food that sustains
their community and its families.

On this mountain the LORD of hosts will make for all peoples a  feast of rich food, a feast of
 well-aged wines, of rich food filled  with marrow, of well-aged wines strained clear.

And he will destroy on this mountain the shroud that is cast over all peoples, the sheet that is
spread over all nations; he will swallow up death forever. Isaiah 25:6-7

Revised Common Lectionary  readings.
