Today in our prayers for the people of United States of America.

Prayer for Peace

Frances Jones

Almighty God and Creator of All,
We come here to honor and praise you for your never-ending love and patience. Let there be a love of peace so strong in your children gathered here that it will sweep across nations and touch each of your children. We pray that your influence will give us a desire for study and unselfish living with one another.

Let the Temple be the physical means by which people can come to learn what they can do to influence others toward peace. Together, with your help, we will accomplish the goal of peace you have set before us. Encourage our faithfulness, kindness, and self-control, to influence and contribute to being your peacemakers. Help us so that we will be more loving and will let your Holy Spirit control our thoughts and actions.

In Jesus Christ’s name. Amen.
