There are millions of victims of violence in the world. There are millions of silenced voices in the attempt to defend the truth and demand justice.

From Christian Peacemaker Teams we offer our solidarity and raise our prayers in honour of all the victims of violence in the world.

Whoever pursues righteousness and love finds life, prosperity and honour. Proverbs 21:21
