Three of the four members of Christian Peacemaker Teams who were kidnapped Nov. 26 in Baghdad were shown in a new video released Tuesday.

The men - two Canadians, a Briton, and a U.S. citizen not shown - entreated their governments and other Middle Eastern countries to work for their release, according to al Jazeera, which aired the tape marked Feb. 28.

CPT, an international violence reduction organization, called for events to mark the 100th day of captivity for the peace workers Sunday.
