Interfaith Prayer for Peace

An Interfaith Prayer Service is being held at the Carmelite Monastery in Indianapolis tonight. I’ve never been to such an event, but I feel a calling to go. The event is part of Indy’s annual Spirit and Place Festival whose theme this year is “living generously”.

According to the website, this interfaith worship service will feature prayers for peace from the perspectives of American Indian, Baha'i, Buddhism, Christianity, Hinduism, Jainism, Judaism, Islam, Sikhism, and Unitarian Universalism.

I should be in much better shape after attending, considering I will have joined a pool of people to pray to all the proverbial Gods. Wednesday, I’ll be more tolerant, more understanding, more patient, more supportive, more inspired, more grateful, more expectant, more generous, more thoughtful, and just plain ol’ more better.

Hopefully (prayerfully), all that goodness and light will last till at least Thursday.

(The tree. Significant shedding and not its best side, but this week's prayer is right outside the front door.)
