Prayers for Peacemakers, June 24, 2015    Palestine

Give thanks for the steadfast determination of
the people of Susiya, who have are facing the obliteration of their village at
the hands of Israel.  Give thanks for
their Israeli and international supporters who recognize their right to remain
where their families have lived for generations, and who will help them
rebuild.

PRAY BY PETITION: Sign the petition to save Susiya, if you have not done so already

  *Epixel for Sunday, June 28, 2015
God did not make death, and he does not delight in the death of the living.  For he created all things so that they might
exist; the generative forces of the world are wholesome, and there is no destructive poison in them, and the dominion
of Hades  is not on earth. Wisdom of Solomon 1:13-14
