#cyblessings 28th March 2012


Christian Aid partner MCSL works with Sierra Leonean chieftancy systems to resolve conflict .

This has got the best way forward, to work with established systems and structures.  It is such a relief to see we've finally moved beyond the idea that we should impose our governmental structures and then be shocked when it doesn't work.

Christian Aid are asking us to give prayers for people living in conflict today.    As we read, listen and watch our news each day it can seem as if we're in a time with more conflict than ever before.  And certainly there is too much conflict but I doubt it is any more than has always existed.  But the good news is that we can all bring change by asking and demanding agencies to assist in the achievement of peace and reconciliation.
