A PRAYER FOR PEACE FROM POPE LEO
Please join the Pope in praying for peace
"Lord Jesus,
You conquered death without weapons or violence:
You shattered its power with the strength of peace.
Grant us Your peace,
as You did to the women filled with doubt on Easter morning,
as You did to the disciples who were hiding in fear.
Send forth Your Spirit,
the breath that gives life and reconciles,
that turns adversaries and enemies into brothers and sisters.
Inspire in us to trust in Mary, Your mother,
who stood at the foot of Your cross with a broken heart,
firm in the faith that You would rise again.
May the madness of war cease
and the Earth be cared for and cultivated by those who still
know how to bring forth, protect and love life.
Hear us, Lord of life!”
