An Iraqi boy helps with a cleanup project organized in Fallujah, Iraq, by the Muslim Peacemaker Teams. Street cleaning and praying with Sunni Muslims were the teams’ first public actions. The Muslim Peacemaker Teams, founded in February, grew out of Iraqi Human Rights Watch and works closely with members of the Christian Peacemaker Teams, who have been in Iraq since 2002.
This appears in the August 2005 issue of Sojourners
