God of Peace and Sustainer of the Oppressed, we lift up Taybeh, the last Christian village in the West Bank, as it faces intimidation and fear. You see the struggles of those who dwell there and hear their cries for justice and safety. Shelter them beneath Your wings, and let Your peace guard their hearts and minds, even as tensions rise around them. Reveal Jesus to those who threaten and intimidate, that they may know the Prince of Peace who calls every heart to repentance and life. Strengthen the believers of Taybeh to stand firm in the truth and love of Christ, and let their witness shine brightly in their community. Establish Your kingdom in this place, that Your will may be done on earth as it is in heaven. We ask in the name of Jesus, our Peace. Amen.
