Sunday 21st September 2025 is Peace Sunday
Peace Sunday is a chance for the church to pause and reflect on what it means to follow the Prince of Peace today.
The theme for this year considers how we make time for peace in ourselves, our communities and our lives. It’s an invitation to celebrate what we already do and an invitation to take one more action for peace.

Prayer for the Holy Land
Gracious Father, whose blessed Son Jesus Christ came down from heaven to be the true bread which gives life to the world:
In your mercy, provide for all those in Gaza and beyond who suffer from hunger and starvation, that they may be given both physical bread to nourish their bodies and heavenly bread to sustain their souls.
By the power of your Spirit, bring a speedy end to this cruel war, the release of all captives, care for the sick and wounded, comfort for those who have lost loved-ones, and the opening of a pathway for a just and lasting peace here in the very homeland where your Son, our Lord Jesus Christ, ministered during his earthly life; who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and forever.
Amen
The Most Reverend Dr. Hosam E. Naoum,
Anglican Archbishop in Jerusalem, August 2025
