Why pray for peace?

One of the most pressing reasons to pray for peace is the ever-growing number of casualties in Ukraine and Russia. As of December 1, 2014, the United Nations reported that more than 5,300 people have been killed and over 11,000 wounded in the conflict in Ukraine since April 2014.

Hundreds of thousands of people have been displaced as a result and there has been a dramatic increase in the number of refugees fleeing to neighboring countries. The overall humanitarian situation has deteriorated markedly since the beginning of hostilities.

Meanwhile, fighting continues unabated in eastern Ukraine between government forces and separatist rebels. Since mid-April 2015, at least 447 people have died and 1,970 have been injured in this conflict.

It is clear that prayer can make a real difference in peacemaking situations and we believe that it is an important way for Christians to respond to these events. There are many ways to pray for peace and we encourage you to find one that works best for you.
