Peace Prayer of St Francis
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.
where there is hatred, let me sow love
where there is injury, pardon
where there is doubt, faith
where there is despair, hope
where there is darkness, light
where there is sadness, joy.
O divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console,
to be understood as to understand,
to be loved as to love.
For it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned, and
it is in dying that we are born to eternal life.
Leader: We walk on the sacred land of the Kombumerri people,
May their spirit, and the spirit of Sister Mary Ignatius guide us in all that we do.
All: Together we grow.
Mary, Mother of Mercy and St Francis
All: Pray for us.
