Week of Peace, Day 1

On Sunday we lit the second candle of the Advent Wreath. This candle represents peace.

We light this candle for peace.

God of flood and fire, 
you blaze a path for us in the wilderness 
and lead us through the depths in safety. 
Pour out the consuming power of your Spirit. 
Wash over us with truth and righteousness 
and fan the flames of justice as we wait 
for the coming of Jesus Christ our Savior, 
living water and light of the world. Amen.
