Pope Leo XIV is inviting people around the world to pause each day at 3:30pm for one minute of prayer for world peace. You might like to set a daily reminder on your phone or an alarm at home and wherever you are, take just one minute to pray.

To support this, CAFOD are offering this short prayer –

Lord Jesus you conquered death without weapons or violence. You shattered its power with the strength of peace. Grant us your peace as you did to the women filled with doubt on Easter morning. As you did to the disciples who were hiding in fear. Send forth your spirit the breath that gives life and reconciles that turns adversaries and enemies into brothers and sisters inspire in us to trust in Mary, your mother, who stood at the foot of the cross with a broken heart firm in faith that you would rise again. May the madness of war cease and the earth be cared for and cultivated by those who still know how to bring forth protect and love life Hear us Lord of Life!
