Almighty God,
Creator of the earth in which we live,
Help us today in our search for peaceful ways
To avoid wars, to eliminate terrorism and tyranny
And to establish justice for peoples of all races and faiths.
We pray that the billions of peace-loving
people of goodwill throughout the nations,
will join together in prayer and action
To bring love where there is hatred,
Friendship where there is enmity,
And justice where there is oppression.
Amen.

Prayer to the Divine Mercy – Let us pray for all faithful Christians
Most Compassionate Jesus, Who dost bestow Ty graces upon all abundantly
from the treasures of Thy mercy, receive all faithful Christians into the abode
of us to depart from it. We implore this of Thee through the love which unites
Thee to the Father and the Holy Ghost in the unity of the Blessed and
Incomprehensible Trinity.
Our father.. hail Mary.. Glory be..
Eternal Father, Look with eyes of Mercy upon the souls of the faithful as upon
the beloved inheritance of Thy Son. Through His sorrowful Passion grant them
Thy blessings and encompass them with thy increasing care so that they may
never loose their love or their treasure of holy faith, but with the entire host
of Angels and Saints may they glorify Thy boundless mercy of eternity. Amen
