The people of Sudan have experienced conflict for years. Across the country, lives have been lost, communities scattered, people displaced. Steps toward peace have been made. The situation remains fragile.
Our sisters and brothers in Sudan need our prayer at all times. The Presbyterian Office on Africa, the Presbyterian Peacemaking Program, and the Sudan Advocacy Action Forum invite you to join in prayer on the weekend of August 28 through 30. Here are some resources to help:
