Peace Ministries
Peace Ministries Office of the Episcopal Church provides articles, links and other materials on peace.
Lord,
make me an instrument of Your 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; where there is
sadness, joy.
Prayer of Saint Francis of Assisi (c.1182–1226)
