PeacePrayers

At 11 homicides already in this calendar year, our City will almost certainly far exceed the 14 that occurred in 2007., and could easily far exceed the record of 22 which happened in 2006.  Clearly there is something wrong with the fabric of our community, our city and our society.  Despite real needs that can only be met by government, surely there is a significant role that the faith community is called to bring to the issue.   One place to begin to figure out what we are called to do, is to go to God in prayer.  We begin to work for peace by asking God for peace, and by asking God to help us discern what God calls us to do to be peacemakers in our community

We invite the community to join us for PeacePrayers, on Sunday, May 4 at 5:00 PM.  Through this service of scripture, song and prayer we will bring our fervent prayers for peace to God, even as we seek to determine what God is calling us to do to be an effective witness for peace in our community.  Please join us for PeacePrayes; and please join us in praying daily for peace in Wilmington.
