September 3, 2026 Reflection: Become a sign to this peaceless world…
I call you, carrying the newborn Jesus in my arms for you,
to unite with Him through prayer and to become a sign to this peaceless world.

Dear Family of Mary!
Here again is the August 25, 2026 Message from Our Lady, Queen of Peace:
“Dear children. Today I am calling you: return to God, return to prayer, so that you may become carriers of peace. Pray, little children, for peace that is in danger; and may prayer begin to flow anew from your hearts and from your families, so that, in joy, you may feel the voice of Jesus in your hearts: ‘Peace be with you.’ Be, little children, carriers of peace and prayer for all those who do not pray. I am with you and I pray for you before my Son Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call.” (With Ecclesiastical approval)
“Pray, little children, for peace that is in danger…”
Our Lady calls us to pray for peace in the August 25, 2026, message. She has often called for prayers for peace. But it is not so easy to voice a prayer. We feel too small to actually pray for peace, because the battle for peace is so huge and menacing.
Here is a message from Our Lady in which she teaches us how to pray for peace:
December 25, 2001
“Dear children! I call you today and encourage you to prayer for peace. Especially today I call you, carrying the newborn Jesus in my arms for you, to unite with Him through prayer and to become a sign to this peaceless world. Encourage each other, little children, to prayer and love. May your faith be an encouragement to others to believe and to love more. I bless you all and call you to be closer to my heart and to the heart of little Jesus. Thank you for having responded to my call.”
Mother helps us to find the way to pray for peace!! She offers us the Newborn Jesus, who is the gift of peace for the whole world!! If we embrace Baby Jesus, and adore Him, we will begin to understand peace and even be able to share it! We only need to become little like Baby Jesus, to understand peace.
St. Francis of Assisi understood the peace that comes from Baby Jesus. He made the first Manger Scene at Christmas, in order to help the people to really understand the Birth of Jesus! He knew that it is necessary to feel, touch, see, and marvel at the gift of Jesus in the Manger. This is where peace begins.
Here is the traditional prayer of St. Francis of Assisi which is a prayer for peace. It is also a very childlike prayer. We give up our worldly power, to become love, pardon, faith, hope, light and joy. Let’s pray it several times today, asking for peace in our hearts so that we can give peace to others.
Prayer of St. Francis of Assisi (Prayer for 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.
In Jesus, Mary and Joseph!
