Please keep Syria and its ongoing civil war in your prayers. More than 100,000 men, women and children have died so far and millions have been displaced. A peace conference will be held in Geneva under the auspices of the United Nations on January 22. Please pray with us for the following:

1. That the Syrian government and opposition forces will take part and be open to ending this conflict.
2. For wisdom for the UN and its negotiators in facilitating these talks so that an agreement will be reached.
3. For the regime and the opposing side to allow humanitarian aid to get to those who need it.
4. For a possible prayer initiative next month with a team of international prayer leaders who may go into the country to facilitate a coming together of the churches and their leadership to pray for His breakthrough in ending the war and bringing restoration to this shattered society. Pray for open doors, open hearts and His protection over all.
