Iraqi War Memorial Moment

 

       In our world of 5 billion people,

Let us work together for peace.

In our world of many beliefs,

Let us grant our neighbors the right to peacefully practice their beliefs.

For the citizens of Iraq who have been wounded in body and spirit,

God, grant them healing.

For all the American soldiers killed in the Iraqi war,

May they rest in peace.

For all the Iraqi soldiers killed in the war,

May they rest in peace.

For all the noncombatants killed in the war,

May their deaths strengthen our determination to find other means to settle disputes.

For all the mothers and fathers, wives and husbands, sons and daughters who have lost loved ones in the war,

God, grant them healing.

For peaceful reconstruction of Iraq, a country of beauty and sacred tradition,

We implore you, O God.

That each of us may have the courage of the prophets of our faith in working for a peaceful world,

We ask your help, O God.

For national and worldwide security based on human rights and respect for all citizens,

We ask your help, O God.

That cooperation based on mutual respect may prevail among nations,

We pray to you, O God.

That a time will come when all weapons of mass destruction will be eliminated,

We pray to you, O God.

May all countries seek peace,

God, hear our prayer…
