Merciful Father, Prince of Peace, spirit of Wisdom and Compassion, please

look upon our brothers and sisters in Darfur, We humbly pray:

For those who have been subjected to violence: women, children, you and

old men, we ask for healing, consolation,

and relief of further suffering …… Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be

For those who have done violence, we ask for healing, forgiveness, and the

grace of conversion …… Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be

For those in authority throughout the world, we ask wisdom,

creativity, compassion and courage in

addressing this situation …… Our Father, Hail Mary, Glory Be

Lord Jesus, Your Sacred Heart burns for love of all your people. Please

place in our hearts that same love and inspire us to have the courage, wisdom

and ingenuity to take what measurers we can personally to relieve the

suffering in Darfur. We pray this in the name of Jesus, our Lord, through

the intercession of the sorrowful and Immaculate Heart of Mary.

Memorare:

Remember oh most gracious Virgin Mary that never was it known that anyone who fled to the protection, implored thy help, or sought thy intercession was left unaided. Inspired by this confidence, I fly unto thee, oh Virgin of Virgins, my Mother. To thee do I come, before thee I stand, sinful and sorrowful. Oh Mother of the Word Incarnate, despise not my petitions, but in thy mercy, hear and answer me. Amen.
