Prayer of St. Francis

As we prepare of our prayer encounter at NRN this evening at 6:30 I was recently reminded of prayer I thought would help us.  We gather to meet in the very Presence of God.  I invite you to join us this evening to pray in spirit and in truth.


Lord, make us instruments of your peace. 

Where there is hatred, let us sow love; where there is injury, pardon; where there is discord, union; where there is doubt, faith; where there is despair, hope; where there is darkness, light; where there is sadness, joy. 

Grant that we may not so much seek to be consoled as to console; to be understood as to understand; to be loved as to love. 

For it is in giving that we receive; it is in pardoning that we are pardoned; and it is in dying that we are born to eternal life. Amen.
