Prayers for Peacemakers, 8 February 2017

Today, let us celebrate the successful accomplishment of the intensive month-long training for peacemakers that has just ended in Fusagasugá, Colombia. Let us give thanks for the nine wonderful peacemakers from Colombia, Argentina, India, Poland, Australia, Canada and United States who are joining Christian Peacemaker Teams in our worldwide mission to “build partnerships that transform violence and oppression.”

Please pray for God’s guidance for the new members of the CPT Corps as they discern new commitments with various CPT projects and navigate personal and organizational situations.
