The theme for ACSD this year is "Make me an instrument of Your peace". As we continue prayerfully looking ahead toward this year's Serve-a-Thon, the prayer below (known as the "Prayer of Saint Francis") seems like a wonderful one to pray together. May God help each person who participates in this year's Serve-a-Thon to be an instrument of His peace!
Lord, make me an instrument of your peace:
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
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.
