Prayers for Peacemakers, February 24, 2016

Pray for the European Convergence currently taking place in Hamburg.  Pray for the participants as they come up with strategies for a CPT training in Europe this year and
for continuing CPT-Europe’s ministry to refugees and asylum-seekers crossing
the Mediterranean.

 without money and without price.  Isaiah 55:1
