Pray and Fast for Peace Sept 7



Pope Francis has called the world to Prayer and Fasting for Peace on September 7, 2013 in order to counter the violence throughout the world, in particular, the violence in Syria.

Let us heed the call of the Holy Father by fasting and praying next Saturday, September 7.  Our world is in much need of prayer.  Wars won't solve anything and we cannot fight violence with violence.

Some 'demons' in life can only go away via prayer and fasting.(Matthew 17:21)
