Peace Day September 21, 2019


May Peace Prevail On Earth



2019 Peace Day Theme:
This year's 
peace day theme draws attention to the importance of combatting climate change as a way to protect and promote peace throughout the world.

Peace Prayer of St. Francis

Lord make me an instrument of your peace
Where there is hatred let me sow love
Where there is injury, pardon
Where there is doubt, faith
Where there is despair, hope
Where there is darkness, light
And where there is sadness, joy

O divine master grant that I may
not so much seek to be consoled as to console
to be understood as to understand
To be loved as to love

For it is in giving that we receive
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned
And it's in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Amen

 
Prayer of St. Francis, (Make Me A Channel of Your Peace) sung by Angelina, EWTN

What is a Peace Pole


A Peace Pole is an internationally-recognized symbol of the hopes and dreams of the entire human family, standing vigil in silent prayer for peace on earth.

Each Peace Pole bears the message May Peace Prevail on Earth in different languages on each of its four or six sides. There are estimated over 250,000 Peace Poles in every country in the world dedicated as monuments to peace.
