God s love will guide you as you share your ideas as a peace maker. Remember, we can pray in many ways, in a written prayer, a song or through pictures. Use your talents to create a prayer for peace to share with all of us in our church community. We look forward to hearing your thoughts and ideas! Please put your name and phone number on the back of your creation before placing your Prayers for Peace in the box in the Gathering Space. We will begin sharing your prayers at mass throughout the Advent Season, the most joyful season of the year. Thank you. God Bless You!
