Together for PEACE:
​SHARE LENT 2018

"This Lenten season, Development and Peace proposes that you partake in dialogue as a way to promote and share a culture of peace, tolerance, respect, and dignity. Lent is an opportune time to show our interest in others through a concrete gesture, however small, of our participation in building a world of peace. We invite Canadians to be generous in supporting the urgent and necessary work that Development and Peace is doing to improve the lives of local communities in the Global South," says Serge Langlois, Executive Director of Development and Peace.

Prayer for Peace - Ukrainian Catholic Church

Following the crisis in the Ukraine, the Ukrainian Catholic Archeparchy of Winnipeg has forwarded a prayer for Peace to the Reverend Clergy, Consecrated Religious, Seminarians, Faithful and Friends of the Ukrainian Catholic Church in Canada!

“For peace throughout the world, for the well-being of God’s holy churches and for the unity of all, let us pray to the Lord.”

They appeal for prayers for peace in the Ukraine, an end to violence there, for the well-being of God's churches and unity among the people of the Ukraine.

Read the full prayer appeal here.
