Prayers for Peacemakers: Pray for those who struggle to have water

Pray for people around the world who struggle to have enough water to remain healthy and to grow the food they need, even though access to clean water is a fundamental human right. In the Beqa’a Valley east of Hebron, in the midst of a multi-year drought, the Israeli military last week destroyed cisterns and hauled away irrigation pipes which the Palestinian farmers use to water their crops. May we be mindful as we use water and consider its power.
