Not forgotten. We carry the Hostages in our hearts every day.

In this incredibly tense, painful time of war, we remain resilient in our prayerful support for the hostages still being held captive by Hamas in Gaza.

There is so much going on in the world, with suffering on so many fronts and affecting numerous peoples who rightly have a claim on our compassion, concern and prayers.

Yet we never forget those brutally abducted on October 7, and their families who are waiting for them.

With faith in miracles, we remember the Hostages, and pray for their freedom, their release and their safe return.

Isaiah 49:24-25

Can the prey be taken from the mighty,
    or the captives of a tyrant be rescued?
For thus says the Lord:
“Even the captives of the mighty shall be taken,
    and the prey of the tyrant be rescued,
for I will contend with those who contend with you,
    and I will save your children.”  (nrsv)

Thank you for being part of this circle of prayer.
