Pray for each other’s needs then conclude with this prayer:
~ Peace Prayer of St Francis
Make me a channel of your peace:
Where there is hatred, let me bring your love;
where there is injury, your healing power,
and where there’s doubt, true faith in you.
Make me a channel of your peace:
where there’s despair in life let me bring hope;
Where there is darkness, only light,
and where there’s sadness, ever joy.
O, Spirit, grant that I may never seek
so much to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love with all my soul.
Make me a channel of your peace:
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
in giving to all that we receive,
and in dying that we’re born to eternal life.
Marist Moment
“Simplicity overpowers all the schemings of the great; humility disarms the strong…love conquers all things”
~ Craig Larkin, SM from “A Certain Way” in the chapter “Humble People”
