International Day of Prayer for Peace
More than 10,000 congregations worldwide observe the International Day of Prayer for Peace, Sept. 19, 2010. Now is the time for congregations to put this on the fall calendar, to explore resources, and to plan prayers, forums, and advocacy for the weeks before and after Sept. 19. Resources are available from the Lutheran Peace Fellowship, the ELCA, the World Council of Churches, and others. God has given us the peace that passes all understanding. Let's learn together how to grow it - and share it!
