AEGEAN MIGRANT SOLIDARITY: The fire awaiting us
I had a video call with a friend of mine a few days ago. He was standing outside the house where he lived. His face was tanned, his smile wide and his words full of humour. When I asked him what had happened with his case, he talked about the colour of the stamp on his Ausweis. * It was still red. He could still not go aboard the big ferry that would take him away from the island.
Oraciones por les Constructores de Paz, 26 de Febrero del 2020 Solidaridad con Migrante Egeo
Por favor, oremos por el deterioro de la situación en Lesbos y en las otras islas Griegas. Además de la nueva ley de asilo, que es más estricta y que el gobierno comenzó a implementar en Enero, el gobierno central también está impulsando su plan para construir centros de detención cerrados para migrantes en las islas Griegas; a pesar de las protestas del gobierno regional, los gobiernos locales y las personas Griegas locales.

Please pray for the deteriorating situation on Lesvos and the other Greek islands. Apart from the new asylum law, which is stricter and which the government began implementing in January, the central government is also pushing through its plan to build closed detention centers for migrants on the Greek islands, in spite of the regional government, local governments and local Greek people protesting.

Prayers for peacemakers 4 December 2019 Lesvos
Please pray for and take action in solidarity with more than 40 thousand migrants stranded on the Aegean Islands who will suffer the severest impacts should New Democracy implement its new plant to end the "refugee crisis"--which is at least in part a result of many European countries refusing to take steps in solidarity with Greece.
