Let us pray and work for both peace and justice – for all people in the Holy Land. Please pray for the following: 

1. That there would be an immediate and lasting ceasefire (with care for those wounded in body or spirit). 
2. That all people – Jewish, Christian, Muslim – who work for a just peace in the Middle East would be bold and effective. 
3. That God would empower and protect Christians in Palestine. (We think especially of the Christian community we know in Bethlehem.) 
4. That Christians around the world would care as much for Palestinians as we care for Israelis.
