Never judge people by their appearance




For us people quick to judge. I have lots of Muslim friends and they are very loving. I think we are all human with tendencies. This video is very powerful all we need is Peace and love. Life is too short make it worthwhile and meaningful.

EDSA PRAYER FOR PEACE



Lord Jesus, we come to you in our need. Create in us an awareness of the massive forces of conflict that threaten our world today. And grant us a sense of urgency to activate the forces of goodness, of justice, of love and of peace.
Where there is armed conflict, let us stretch out our arms to our brothers and sisters. Where there is abundance, let there be simple lifestyle and sharing. Where there is poverty, let there be dignified living and constant striving for just structures. Where there is selfish ambition, let there be humble service. Where there is injustice, let there be atonement. Where there is despair, let there be hope in the Good News. Where there are wounds of division, let there be unity and wholeness.
Help us to be committed to the building of your kingdom, not seeking to be cared for but to care; not expecting to be served but to place ourselves in the service of others; not aspiring to be materially secure but to place our security in your love.
Teach us your spirit, for it is only in loving imitation of you, Lord, that we can discover the healing springs of life that will bring about new birth to the earth and hope for the world. Amen.
Our Lady, Queen of Peace. Pray for us.

Prayer to Blessed Pedro Calungsod

Blessed Pedro Calungsod,
student, catechist, young migrant,
missionary, faithful friend, martyr,
you inspire us by your fidelity
in times of adversity;
by your courage
in teaching the faith
in the midst of hostility;
and by your love
in shedding your blood
for the sake of the Gospel.

Make our troubles your own
(here mention your request)
and intercede for us before the throne
of Mercy and Grace
so that, as we experience
the help of heaven,
we may be encouraged to live
and proclaim the Gospel
here on earth.
Amen.

It Begins at Home


Mother Teresa of Calcutta
‘The world is upside down because there is so very little love in the home. We have no time for our children; we have no time for each other; and there is no time to enjoy each other. That is why there is so much suffering and so much unhappiness in the world today. Everybody seems to be in such a terrible rush, anxious for what is bigger and better and greater, and mothers and fathers often do not have time for each other, let alone their children. In the home begins the disruption of the peace of the world.’

The Venerable John Henry Cardinal Newman

‘Do not be afraid that your life will have an end;  be much more afraid that it will never have a beginning’
–The Venerable John Henry Car
dinal Newman (1801 – 1890)



If we wish to create a lasting peace...

...we must begin with the children

Mahatma Gandhi

Peace

Peace cannot be kept by force. It can only be achieved by understanding
Albert Einstein
