ADVENT 2007 - "Praying for Peace"

World PeaceAdvent 2007

The First Sunday of Advent is December 2, 2007, the Feast of Remembrance for the Four Churchwomen who were martyred in El Salvador.  December 2 marks the 27th anniversary of the martyrdom of four U.S. churchwomen, killed in El Salvador by graduates of the then-known School of the Americas ( SOA). Lay missioner Jean Donovan, and Catholic Sisters Maura Clarke, Ita Ford and Dorothy Kazel were murdered in the countryside of El Salvador in December 1980, sought out because of their prophetic stance and commitment to accompanying the poor in El Salvador, and challenging the economic and political systems that continued to oppress and victimize the people of El Salvador.
 

We begin this Feast of the Church with a desire for an end to violence.  Campus Ministry would like to pass on the suggestion of Pax Christi that we find a time every day (perhaps at noon) to pray for peace and to reflect on how we can add our voice and actions to create a more peaceful world.  Prayer cards will be available in St. Francis Chapel.  To learn more about the Pax Christi Advent program click here.
