I went for the mass to pray in solidarity with the Sri Lankan refugees at St Ignatius's Catholic Church on 29th June., organized by the Jesuit Refugee Service. A video presentation as part of it evoked poignant thoughts and sentiments in me. Hence I send out this prayer request.
Please pray for the Sri Lankan refugees. They need true peace and justice within their country.
Children are recruited as soldiers, families become homeless, extreme poverty abounds. The civilians are caught in the crossfire between the government and the militant rebels. Their education is adversely affected. They become internally displaced in their own land.
