Yesterday the United States and Israeli forces attacked Iran. The Maryknoll Mission Office sent out this prayer. May we pray for all involved in this attack. Let us bring peace and compassion to all who we come in contact with.
For families
in Iran living in fear, and for all who live under the evil rain of
bombardment, may they find safe refuge.
Lord, hear our prayer.
For world
leaders, that they stop the bombs and choose diplomacy over destruction and
dialogue over retaliation.
Lord, hear our prayer.
For all those
who are poor and vulnerable, who bear the heaviest burdens of war, may their
cries transform our hearts.
Lord, hear our prayer.
For the
courage to see the face of God in our neighbors and to build a culture of
genuine encounter.
Lord, hear our prayer.
For a lasting
peace based on justice, mercy, and the sacred dignity of every life.
Lord, hear our prayer. Amen.
