Prayers for Peacemakers, April 6, 2016  Europe 

Pray for the refugees and migrants in Greece facing
deportation this week because of the European Union’s agreement with
Turkey.  Pray for CPT-Europe’s partners
on Lesvos, who are facing the shutdown of their collaborative, humane camp at
Pipka by the local authorities.  The
mayor of Lesvos plans to ship all the residents from Pipka to detention camps,
including some of the most vulnerable refugees: those with disabilities, lone
women and children, survivors of shipwrecks. 
Please prayerfully sign this petition to keep Pipka open.

Septermber Supper Fundraiser

Will you host a dinner party for CPT?

CPT really needs your support in raising $10k in September. Unfortunately, we are behind our financial targets and need your help. We want to dedicate the month of September to bringing people together around the dinner table. You can choose the date, who you invite and what you cook (though our teams have some great recipes prepared!) We’d love to hear if you’d be interested. 

There’s no commitment needed at this stage.
