Proclaiming the Cross in Colombia Today: Good Friday Reflections

Peter Stucky writes: "The Body of Christ is a worldwide fellowship. An opportunity to pray and act in solidarity as the Body of Christ is coming up on May 21 and 22, 2006. On these days a coalition of Colombian and North American churches and organizations invite you to participate in Days of Prayer and Action for Colombia.

Will you help us carry and proclaim the cross of Jesus Christ? Pray with us for peace for our communities and our country. Act with us for peace that shows God triumphant. Help tell our stories, the victories in serving the Lord of the 'last and the least' and the challenges that come with being faithful to the gospel of peace in a land of enduring conflict.

Will you bear witness with us? Will you seek out ways to remember our pastors and our people in the challenges they face as God's purposes are worked out in history?"

Resources are provided for North American believers to pray and worship with the Colombian church.
