Peace in Politics
 
Because our leaders embody the peoples they represent, We, the Franciscan Sisters of St. Paul, MN invite you to join us in prayer for all the leaders of all the nations of Earth. Lord, make us instruments of Your peace, so that justice may prevail in this time of globalization.
st. francisLord, make me an instrument of Thy 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 is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.

Amen.

We, The Franciscan Sisters of St. Paul, MN, quote our Foundress Mother Rose Flesch:

"Our Lord chooses the small (humble) when He wants great things done."

In this spirit we see it is important for all of us to pray for world peace.
