Lord, Make me an instrument of Thy peace where there is hatred, let me sow love where there is injury, pardon where there is doubt, faith where there is dispair, hope where there is darkness, light and, where there is sadness. joy. O Divine Master, grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console to be understood, as to understand to be loved, as to love for it is in giving that we receive it is in pardoning that we are pardoned and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life. Amen                         the Prayer of St Francis
