A prayer for Peace

Twelve months on from the events of October 7 and the continuing war in Gaza and the wider region, join us in this prayer for peace.
Candle-lit Hemingby St Margaret Church Hemingby St Margaret/Alison Fairchild

Almighty God,
from whom all thoughts of truth and peace proceed:
kindle, we pray, in the hearts of all, the true love of peace
and guide with your pure and peaceable wisdom
those who take counsel for the nations of the earth
that in tranquillity your kingdom may go forward,
till the earth is filled with the knowledge of your love;
through Jesus Christ your Son our Lord,
who is alive and reigns with you,
in the unity of the Holy Spirit,
one God, now and for ever.
Amen.
