Let us pray to our God
To the God of Mary and Joseph,
To the God of Abraham and Sarah.
May our spirit fill the world with beauty and wonder.
May our mind seek truth with humility and openness.
May our hearts forgive without limit.
May our love for friend, enemy and outcast be without measure.
May our needs be few and my living simple.
Taken and adapted from a prayer by Mary Lou Kownacki, OSB for Pax Christi USA in commemoration of the United Nations International Decade for the Culture of Peace and Nonviolence for the Children of the World.
