A PRAYER FOR PEACE
A CALL FOR HELP
​IN THE UKRAINE

how can we help?

"Churches and people of faith in every neighbourhood, city, and town across Canada are raising their fervent prayers for peace in Ukraine. Many Canadians have been remembering friends with Ukrainian heritage, colleagues in Ukraine, or perhaps their own visits to Ukraine. The country and people are now under siege and it is a shock to our collective consciousness."                            (Canadian Council of Churches)
Picture
There are several ways to help:
  • Pray for the Ukrainian-Russian conflict, using a prayer resource like the one offered through CRCNA Network
  • Donate through World Renew
  • Donate through Mennonite Central Committee
  • Read more through the Canadian Council of Churches
A Prayer for Ukraine
​

Creator God, Lord of all, our Prince of Peace, we come to you in this time of conflict in Ukraine. Our hearts are heavy with all the precious lives we hold and with the reality of the violence so many are experiencing. We pray for peace.
We pray for those who are in positions to make decisions that can create a peaceful path. May you grant wisdom to world leaders to bring about a ceasefire. We pray for wisdom.

We pray for those who are not in positions of power and yet boldly are standing and marching for peace to come. May you grant protection for the people who are caught in the crosshairs of hostilities. We pray for safety.
We pray for those who are searching for safety and seeking refuge within and beyond the borders of Ukraine. We pray for people around the world to love each other as neighbors. We pray for mercy.

We pray that your Spirit will empower us to be bold in our love for sisters and brothers in Ukraine. May our actions point to the love that you call us to live and the peace that you desire for all nations to have. We pray for justice.
We pray this in Your All Powerful Name, Jesus. Hear our prayer. Amen.
