Today, June 15, 2026, we, the members of the Vincentian Family, pray for an end to religious and ethnic violence.

Violence done in the name of faith or identity is a betrayal of our shared humanity and of the God who created all.

We believe in a God of peace, who delights in diversity and unity.

As Vincentians, we must reject hatred, challenge injustice, and be witnesses of reconciliation.

We pray today for all who suffer from religious or ethnic persecution. May we become builders of bridges where others build walls.

Word of God
“Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called children of God.”
(Matthew 5:9)

Prayer
Lord of peace, heal the wounds of division. Make us fearless in defending the dignity of every person, no matter their faith or origin. Amen.
