PEACE SUNDAY: PAX CHRISTI: Today is Peace Sunday. Pope Leo has announced the theme – ‘Peace be with you all: Towards an ‘unarmed and disarming peace’ – and we are putting together liturgy and prayer resources to help you mark the day and reflect on this vital theme in your parish or group. Pope Leo has continued the exhortation of Pope Francis that the call to live nonviolent ‘disarmed’ lives is core to Catholic Social Teaching and the key to peace in a world scarred by violent conflict.
PAX CHRISTI (International Catholic Movement for Peace) produces resources on peace and nonviolence issues, organises events and vigils, represents the Catholic church in the peace movement and works with young people in both schools and churches.
Their website suggests ways we can all become better peacemakers. There are activities for families to do at home, including a peace liturgy for young children. https://paxchristi.org.uk/peace-sunday-2023 Pax Christi needs our support to keep going.
