Prayers
Prayer for the victims of mass murders and genocide.
Lord we remember the Holocaust the most henious crime the world has
ever known. Six million murdered most of the victims were like you
Jesus. Jews , innocent victims, children, women, teenagers, men. The
world said never again, but it has and is happening again, ethnic
cleansing, mass murder.
Lord may your example of love and service change the violent people to
peace makers, call the wrongdoers to repent, inspire leaders to end
violence and war, may we live in unity in your friendship. Amen by Father Shay Cullen Profiles in Catholicism
In Memory: A Holocaust Prayer by Alexander Kimel
Prayer for Holocaust Survivors Who Have Died from Covid 19
Our Father, Avinu, we bow our heads and hearts in prayer.
Many of your People, the Jewish People,
who by Your Grace survived the Holocaust in Europe,
have been infected by and died from coronavirus.
This saddens the hearts not only of Jews,
but people of all faiths,
especially Christians, who were the major perpetrators of the Shoah.
We Christians today, repenting for what Christians then did,
join with the Jewish People in praying today for the survivors
of Nazi genocide.
We Christians join with the Jewish People in calling on people of all faiths to pray for these good people, stricken a second time, this time by a pandemic which is out of control and killing many innocent people of all faiths. Jews, Christians, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, people of all faiths must come together in prayer in this country and around the world, for the survivors of genocide who are in danger and who have died. May they rest in your Peace, Oh Lord.
And may their memory be for a blessing.
