Sudan (text reproduced here; link to changing page): 'Seventy percent of Southern Sudanese are Christian. They have endured years of oppression by the Arab Muslim Government of Sudan (GoS), as well as savage jihad because they refuse to be Islamised. A deadlock in current peace talks threatens future peace, as GoS and Southern peace negotiators have hit issues they are finding hard to resolve. The other stalling point is violence in the western province of Darfur and in the Upper Nile province of Southern Sudan, despite a ceasefire. This strife (ethnic cleansing) is undermining peace efforts. We must pray for God to intervene and guide the process, for justice and for HIS glory. Pray for peace to rule, not just on the ground, but in people's hearts. Please pray that God in his mercy will bring the suffering and evil to an end.' (WEA Religious Liberty Commission)
