A day of prayer and fasting for peace in South Sudan the Democratic Republic of Congo- 23 February

Dear Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

'And let the peace of Christ rule in your hearts, to which indeed you were called in the one body. And be thankful.' Colossians 3:15

Lent is a time of repentance, fasting, and preparation for the coming of Easter. It is a time of reflection regarding the suffering, death, and resurrection of our God and Saviour Jesus Christ. It is also time for self-examination and reflection, for us to redirect and rededicate our attention and action, prayerfully, to the most crying needs in our society.

Pastoral Message to the South Sudan Council of Churches and the People of South Sudan from the Ecumenical Network of South Sudan-European Hub

Posted on News by Global Ministries · April 18, 2017 3:19 PM

"Though the fig tree does not blossom,
and no fruit is on the vines;
though the produce of the olive fails,
and the fields yield no food;
though the flock is cut off from the fold, and there is no herd in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord; I will exult in the God of my salvation.
God, the Lord, is my strength;
he makes my feet like the feet of a deer, and makes me tread upon the heights." 
(Habakkuk 3:17-10)
