Thank God for effective ministry in congregations, area conferences,
and national church over the past year, for the ways in which we have
been able walk with the suffering church in the world, and specifically
in the efforts to speak out against the killing in Darfur, Sudan;
for the demobilization and disarmament of armed groups in Colombia;
in support of imprisoned church leaders in Viet Nam; to ease the tensions
between church and state in Cuba; the continued prayers for CPTers
in Iraq and their families at home. |
