In September 2013, All Saints Church in Peshawar was rocked by explosions. Two suicide bombers inflicted mass casualties on the congregation, killing 130 and wounding many more. Sadly, this is not a rare occurrence in a city where the Taliban has a strong presence.
Many of the dead are the family breadwinners and their dependents now need support if they are to avoid a future of poverty, lost opportunities and dashed dreams.
Please pray: for all hurt and bereaved by the bombings. For peace between neighbours, for love and tolerance. For those whose hearts are filled with hate, that love will find a way in. For those working to help the people of Peshawar, that they will be kept safe.
Bible reading, Psalm 27.
