Prayers for Peacemakers 4 July 2018 Lesvos

Pray for the refugees and volunteers who make a life together at the PIPKA Camp.

Authorities on Lesvos are threatening to shut the camp down for “hygienic” reasons, although these reasons seem to be a front for political motives. PIPKA provides refugees and asylum seekers a more dignified and safer environment than the filthy, chaotic and overcrowded Moria camp.

For more information on the threat to PIPKA see this press release.

For actions you can take on social media, see the Facebook page.
