Prayers For Peace & Conversion

Prayers for Peace & Conversion
"A PRAYER FOR PEACE IN OUR TIMES" - composed by Fr. Peter Scagnelli
O God, author and giver of peace,

in whose image and likeness each of us has been created with a human dignity
worthy of respect on earth and destined for eternal glory,
Listen to the cry that rises from every corner of this fragile earth,
from our human family torn by violent conflict:
Give peace in our time, O good and gracious God, that peace which, as your son
Jesus Christ told us and as we have experienced in these days, is a peace which
the world cannot give.
To world leaders grant the wisdom to see beyond the boundaries of race, religion,
and nation to that common humanity that makes us all your children and
brothers and sisters to one another.
To those who have taken up arms in anger or revenge or even in the cause of
justice grant the grace of conversion to the path of peaceful dialogue
and constructive collaboration.
To the innocent who live in the shadow of war and terror, especially the
frightened children, be a shelter and strength, their haven and hope.
And to those who have already lost their lives as victims of human cruelty and
chemical warfare, open wide your arms and enfold them all in the embrace of
your compassion, healing, and everlasting life.
Grant this through Jesus Christ, your Son, our Lord.

Mary, Mother of all and Queen of peace, pray for us.
PRAYER FOR PEACE: From The Orthodox Peace Fellowship

Lord Jesus Christ, our God, You said to Your disciples, "Peace I leave with you;
my peace I give to you; not as the world gives do I give to you." We come before
You in humility and ask that Your peace which surpasses all understanding will
descend upon all people around the world, especially those currently in conflict
and at war.
Increase understanding and forgiveness between nations. Awaken the longing for
a peaceful life in all those who are filled with hatred for their neighbor.
Extinguish every dispute and banish all temptations to disagreement. Grant
wisdom to civil authorities. Free those held captive, protect those in danger, and
comfort those who are suffering and displaced.
Implant in all of us reverence for You, and confirm us in love for one another.
Make us to celebrate with the angels in chanting:
"Glory to God in the highest, and on earth peace, good will towards men".
For You are the King of Peace and the Savior of our souls and to You we give glory
together with Your eternal Father and Your most-holy, gracious and life-giving
Spirit, now and ever and unto the ages of ages.
Amen.
A PRAYER FOR THE CONVERSION OF YOUR FAMILY: From “The Holy Face
& United Hearts of Jesus & Mary”
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, through the
Immaculate Heart of Mary. Amen.
Eternal Father, I offer You the Most Precious Body, Blood, Soul and Divinity of
Your Son Jesus, in atonement for my sins and the sins of my family. May the
Blood and Water from the pierced Heart of Jesus cleanse my family line of every
stain of sin, and remove every evil influence. Amen.
Immaculate Mother Mary, Please crush the head of the serpent in the life of each
member of my family, and work your miracles of grace in each soul. Please hold
each member of my family (and me) in your Immaculate Heart. Amen.
Precious Blood of Jesus, wash over us. Precious Blood of Jesus, wash over my
family. Precious Blood of Jesus, wash over me. Eternal Father, In the Name of
Jesus, please create an opening in the soul of each member of my family. And
please give each member of my family the graces of True Repentance and
Conversion to Your Son Jesus. Please give each member of my family the grace to
experience Your Love, and be transformed by It. Amen.
Eternal Father, In the Name of Your Son Jesus, please send an honor guard of
angels to surround, protect, defend, guide, guard, assist and minister to each
member of my family (and me) today, and everyday. Amen.
Angels from heaven, direct my path. Saints in heaven, pray for us.
In the Name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, through the
Immaculate Heart of Mary. Amen
