A prayer from the USA Companions in Hope

allafrica.com reports turmoil in Cameroon. Your North American family and friends pray with you:
Christ our Lord, you are the prince of peace. Bring peace and justice to the streets of Cameroon and peace and well-being to the hearts of your children. May your Holy Spirit direct the forces of turmoil into energy for making people’s lives better. May you surround those you love with a wall of fire. Hide them under the shelter of your wings until the storm is past. We pray that you give the leaders of Cameroon wisdom and compassion upon the average person. Answer our prayers that the work of providing for daily needs and striving to improve education, health care, and civil services for all the people of Cameroon may resume. For your sake and in your strong name we pray. Amen
