Maryknoll IDP Peace Prayer

[JohnDrew2]

I will willingly, fervently join in a prayer for peace, but let us remember that the greater conflict resides within each of us, in our day-to-day lives. Let us not forget that when we discriminate against anyone, when we deny anyone, when we categorize them as somehow less worthy than we, we commit a distinctly non-peaceful act. The denial of woman's right to respond to the call of God to the priesthood is purely, simply violence against women. And in denying women, we deprive ourselves.

I have to do a Maryknoll essay.... it is HARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!! How would u follow Jesus' word in a self centered culture. 600-700 words.

We look forward to your essay. Following Jesus can be done in the small things of everyday life, even, as Father mentions in this video, through our hopefulness. We are called to be people of hope.
