Each Thursday at noon in Jerusalem, Sabeel holds a Communion service that is open to the community. It is a time to join together to celebrate the Eucharist, to discuss how the scriptures apply to our lives today, and to pray for the specific needs of this region. Following the 2006 Sabeel International Conference, the Friends of Sabeel coordinators met and discussed the idea of "Waves of Prayer." The premise is that in their respective time zones, individuals and groups around the world will pray together at 12:00 on Thursdays, in solidarity with Sabeel in Jerusalem and with "Friends of Sabeel" worldwide. Starting in Australia, passing through Palestine, and on around the world we will pray for Peace with Justice and focus on specific issues each week.
Wave of Prayer for Thursday, December 30, 2010
During this blessed Christmas season we give praise to all our friends around the world for their support to our Wave of Prayer. We pray for them, their families and friends. We give thanks for their continuous and warm commitment and ask the Lord to strengthen our fellowship through this Wave of Prayer and the work for Justice and Peace.
With the Prayer Cycle of the World Council of Churches, we pray for: Ghana, Nigeria
