Prayers for Peacemakers, February 18, 2016  Indigenous Peoples’ Solidarity

Pray for the people of Shoal Lake 40 as they
prepare to travel to Geneva, Switzerland
, and testify before the United Nations
about Canada’s withholding from their Anishinaabe community adequate water,
sanitation, healthcare, and education facilities.

I believe that I shall see the goodness of the LORD in the land of the living. Psalm 27: 12-13
