Prayers For Peace

Jennifer Roback Morse of the Hoover Institution (and author of Love and Economics: Why the Laissez-Faire Family Doesn’t Work) writes:

Here in San Diego, we have one of the largest concentrations of Iraqi

expatriates in the US. There are many in the Chaldean Catholic church who

are opponents of Saddam. Take a look at these prayer intentions composed

jointly by our local RC bishop and the Chaldean Catholic bishop. You or I

might change the order of priority of these petitions, but I can’t argue

with a single one. I find it refreshing to hear churchmen pray for “a just

and lasting peace.” There is no hint of appeasement here.
