Unrest continues in Hong Kong. Pray for the MWC Deacons delegation who will visit in December. May the presence of the global Anabaptist family through these representatives be an encouragement to the Mennonite church in Hong Kong and a witness to the Prince of Peace.

Latin Americans long for peace in countries where conflict and suffering endures. Pray for Bolivia where a toppled president has left political uncertainty in his wake. Pray for Venezuelans who continue to suffer from economic and political crisis. Pray for the people of Colombia, Honduras, Guatemala, Haiti and Chile who are also experiencing political difficulties and violence. In the midst of national difficulties, may MWC member churches heed Jesus‘ call for the churches to be one body together, valuing instead of demeaning our differences as expressions of the diversity God created.
