A Special Prayer for the Crisis in Ukraine
Poem
The Convert
G.K. Chesterton (1874–1936) After one moment when I bowed my head And the whole world turned over and came upright, And I came out where the old road shone white, I walked the ways and heard what all men said, Forests of tongues, like autumn leaves unshed, Being not unlovable but strange and light; Old riddles and new creeds, not in despite But softly, as men smile about the dead. The sages have a hundred maps to give That trace their crawling cosmos like a tree, They rattle reason out through many a sieve That stores the sand and lets the gold go free: And all these things are less than dust to me Because my name is Lazarus and I live.
To Pray for
Peace among all nations - and an end to the ongoing war between the Ukraine and Russia.
A world without hate crimes and attacks
Our neighbours and communities
For the sick
