Dear God, Father of all peoples, We humbly pray for peace in our world, Still plagued by war and terrorism.
By the cross of Your Son Jesus, Victory was gained over hatred and violence, And a new way of love and solidarity was revealed.
We pray that by overcoming The walls that divide countries and peoples, And by treating all people alike as the children of God, Deeper mutual understanding will develop And relationships based on love and trust will be built. In this way may we become Your workers for peace, Amen (The Ten-day Period of peace2005)
