Letter from Msgr
Prayer for Peace
May Christ banish from the souls of men and women whatever might endanger peace.
May he transform all people into witnesses of truth, justice and love.
May Christ illumine with his light the minds of rulers,
so that, besides caring for the proper material welfare of their peoples,
they may also guarantee them the fairest gift of peace.
Finally, may Christ inflame the desires of all people
to break through the barriers which divide them,
to strengthen the bonds of mutual love,
to learn to understand one another,
and to pardon those who have done them wrong.
Through Christ’s power and inspiration
may all peoples welcome each other
to their hearts as brothers and sisters,
and may the peace they long for
ever flower and ever reign among them.
—Pope John XXIII, Pacem in Terris
The above prayer was taken from the Encyclical Pacem in Terris written by Pope John XXIII (now Pope St. John XXIII) in 1963. He addressed this letter not only to Catholics but to “all men of good will”. This was something not done by a pope in modern times. It was his hope to address the challenges threatening world peace because of the nuclear arms escalation, particularly by the United States of America and the Soviet Union. His encyclical attracted the attention of the world, not just the Catholics. It is a message still needed in our world.
The basic premise of Pope John’s thinking was the bonds of humanity bind us all together. Made in the image and likeness of God all are to be respected and reverenced. This supersedes any national or ethnic differences. Based on our common humanity the encyclical called for an end to the climate of fear and a new openness to understanding. I believe the words of Pope St. John XXIII need to be heard in our community and our nation as we seek peace and justice for all.
