Prayers for Peacemakers August 10, 2016

Give thanks for the life of Kryss Chupp who has dedicated
almost three decades of her life to the work of CPT. She celebrated her 57^th birthday
during CPT’s administrative team’s Strategic Directions retreat this week. Please hold her and the rest of the
Administrative Team in prayer as they plan for the future.
