Please pray for a conversion of hearts among all those who prey upon the migrants seeking asylum along the U.S./Mexico border. At the Agua Prieta MX/Douglas AZ crossing, migrants—primarily from Mexico but also from countries in Central and South America and all the way from Russia—come to their final destination before crossing into the U.S. where they hope they will be safe.

Pray for all those detained in concentration camps at the U.S./Mexico Border and in other U.S. Customs and Border Patrol Facilities. Give thanks for those who are trying to shine a light on the racist and misogynistic Border Patrol culture that is threatening the lives and the health of the children, women and men held in these camps. Inspire people on the outside to find creative ways to confront and overturn this evil, before it turns into something worse.

I had a conversation recently with a good friend of mine from Cameroon. He was telling me that I am white. He was comparing the colour of his arm to the colour of my arm. “Look so white your arm is and so black mine is,” he said with a big smile. It was the first time in my life that someone had called me white.

Pray for the No More Deaths volunteers along the U.S./ Mexico Border who have been convicted and are still facing charges because they left water for migrants who crossed through the Cabeza Prieta National Wildlife Refuge. Pray for humanitarians all over the word who are having their kindness criminalized by their governments as they try to help migrants.

Please hold in your hearts all who are denied entrance to some of the most beautiful places surrounding Mytilini, because of people who have weaponised and nationalised a symbol of Christian hope. Please also keep in your thoughts all who are celebrating liberation, acceptance and love.

As the third anniversary of the EU-Turkey Deal approaches, we pray for all who lost loved ones, those trapped in concentration camps, and those sent back to countries where they had to face war, hunger and human rights abuses because of the Deal’s implementation. We pray for all migrants everywhere, because intolerance knows no borders.

Pray for the people confined to the Aegean islands during the winter months. Showers are falling on migrants who live in tents and containers on Lesvos. Rapidly flowing streams are coursing down between their small tents in the olive grove. Migrants are left to fend for themselves. They have to be creative and use the garbage that they find in the surrounding area to winterise their shelters and protect themselves from the cold, the damp, and the rain.
