Pope Francis' Angelus message on March 13, 2022, the anniversary of his election as the Servant of God's servants:
Let us all pray with one accord using the words of our Holy Father for peace in the Ukraine:
Lord God of peace, hear our prayer!
We have tried so many times and over so many years to resolve our conflicts by our own powers and by the force of our arms. How many moments of hostility and darkness have we experienced; how much blood has been shed; how many lives have been shattered; how many hopes have been buried… But our efforts have been in vain.
Now, Lord, come to our aid! Grant us peace, teach us peace; guide our steps in the way of peace. Open our eyes and our hearts, and give us the courage to say: "Never again war!"; "With war everything is lost". Instill in our hearts the courage to take concrete steps to achieve peace.
Lord, God of Abraham, God of the Prophets, God of Love, you created us and you call us to live as brothers and sisters. Give us the strength daily to be instruments of peace; enable us to see everyone who crosses our path as our brother or sister. Make us sensitive to the plea of our citizens who entreat us to turn our weapons of war into implements of peace, our trepidation into confident trust, and our quarrelling into forgiveness.
Keep alive within us the flame of hope, so that with patience and perseverance we may opt for dialogue and reconciliation. In this way may peace triumph at last, and may the words "division", "hatred" and "war" be banished from the heart of every man and woman. Lord, defuse the violence of our tongues and our hands. Renew our hearts and minds, so that the word which always brings us together will be "brother", and our way of life will always be that of: Shalom, Peace, Salaam!
Amen.

This rosary design is a throwback to the past. The bronze colored, metallic beads truly have a vintage flair.
The corrugated bronze metal beads combine with a centerpiece which depicts the Holy Family on one side and the Holy Spirit on the other side. A crucifix with scrolled edges and a sunburst complete the design.
Whether for yourself or for someone special in your life, this heirloom quality sacramental is bound to be cherished for decades to come!!
After reading the reports of clergy being infected in Italy, with many dying and many other hospitalized, I wanted to write something practical for clergy.
*Looking for surgical health care workers!*
