Making peace in our broken world: violence in the community.
Perhaps the best way to try to understand the challenge of this message ‘making peace in our
broken world’ is to look at some stories of people in our own community today who are
trying to face the violence that has been done to them and their families. Listed below are
links to these inspiring stories, followed by a series of links to prayers which help our further
reflection on peace.
Finding peace in our own lives through the forgiveness of others allows us to be free from
feelings of anger and resentment. Once we have achieved this we can work for a larger peace
in the world.
