Prayers for our world from Tearfund
Refugees from the DRC
Lift up all those fleeing the violence in the Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC). Pray for provision for their needs and for comfort as they face the loss of loved ones, homes, livelihoods and security. Pray for peace. Ask God to bring an end to the violence so that people may return to their homes and start to rebuild their lives again in safety. Lift up all the children who have been affected by the conflict. Pray that violence would not be the thing that defines their childhood.
Politics and provision (a prayer request from staff in Uganda)
Please pray for peace in Uganda as the election campaigns are due to begin soon. We would also appreciate prayers for increased funding to support vulnerable communities across Uganda. Lastly, please pray for adequate rainfall and a bountiful harvest this agricultural season, particularly for the Karamoja region, to help eliminate hunger. Uganda is host to the largest number of refugees of any country in Africa. Pray for the refugees already settled in Uganda and for those coming into the country and ask that the Lord provides for them.
Ceasefire talks for Russia/Ukraine conflict (published 16 May)
As talks are underway to broach a ceasefire in the Russia/Ukraine conflict, the absence of some key voices at the table is discouraging to hopes for peace. Attacks continue with more blasts in Ukraine reported by major news outlets today. Pray for an end to the violence. Ask God to intervene and to make a way where there seems to be none. Pray for all those living in constant fear of attack and for families worrying about their loved ones serving on the front lines. Pray that people will be able to return to their lives in peace and start to rebuild the homes, schools, livelihoods and sense of security that have been lost.
