Prayers for Peacemakers, December 23, 2015

Pray for the people of Hebron, living under
foreign military occupation, just as Mary and Joseph did two millennia
ago. Give thanks for the Holy Child whose tenderness was mightier than the Roman Empire.  Pray for an end to empires and the
coming of the Reign of God.  

*Epixel for December 24, 2015
The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who lived in a land of deep darkness on them
 light has shined. Isaiah 9:2
