O God of Peace and Harmony,
who dwells in every heartbeat
and breathes through all creation,
hear the longing of our world.
We live in a time of unrest—
of broken trust, wounded lands, and restless souls.
Yet we believe peace is possible
when hearts are changed
and hands are joined.
Teach us, as You taught Saint Francis,
to walk humbly with the poor,
to listen deeply to the cry of the earth,
and to recognize every person
as our brother and sister.
Bless our world torn by war, division, and greed.
Heal the wounds of nations, soften hardened hearts,
Bless the leaders of the world with humility, patience, and vision.
Strengthen those who work silently for justice, protect the vulnerable,
and awaken in every heart a responsibility for one another.
May peace begin within us,
take root in our communities,
and spread across nations
like light at dawn.
Amen
