Prayers for Peacemakers, June 17, 2015      Indigenous Peoples Solidarity

Pray for Canadian institutions to take seriously the ninety-four
recommendations of the Truth and Reconciliation Commission regarding the
atrocities committed against Indigenous people in the residential school
system. Give thanks for the healing journey thus far, for the dedication of the
survivors, and for the opportunities for genuine reconciliation created by
their testimony.
