Shaping Peace Together

UNITED NATIONS INTERNATIONAL DAY OF PEACE
“’Peace’ is both an inner journey toward a disarmed heart and a public journey toward a disarmed world. This difficult but beautiful journey gives infinite meaning and fulfillment to life. We become a gift for the whole human race.” - John Dear, The Beatitudes of Peace
Affirmative Prayer: “Infinite Presence, I join with my fellow world citizens today in embracing the UN idea of ‘Shaping Peace Together.’ I celebrate this day by releasing one turbulent view that I’ve held too long, and by sharing compassion, kindness, and hope with those in my orbit. Let there be peace, and let it begin with me. Thank you, God, forever. Amen.”– Rev. Scott
