Lord, please bless Muslim extremists with your peace and gentleness, and bring them into pure lives of love.
Lord, please bless Muslim moderates with the knowledge of your grace and heart of love.
Lord, please bless Muslim liberals and Muslim conservatives, granting that the dearness with which Muslim conservatives often hold to absolute values may be transfered to a dear love of the absolute values you have made known, and granting that the freedom Muslim liberals cherish may be transferred to an abiding love of the freedom they can experience in Christ.
Please bless Muslims in Islamic countries with the courage to stand up to persecution in order to become Christian.
Thank-you, Lord, for your love for Muslims. Please make that love manifest by the powerful intervention of the Holy Spirit.
Mary, Daniel, Peter, Paul, and Justin the Martyr, please pray for the Muslim people. Francis, as you crossed a geographical divide to enter Egypt and bring the Muslims to a knowledge of the truth, please cross a spiritual divide in prayer and bring Muslims out of spiritual darkness and into the brilliance of God’s light.
Oh Lord Jesus, bless the Muslim people and consume with your love their lands that are so hungry for truth. Please satisfy each aching heart.
Lord, I pray also for the hungry in Muslim lands. The food crisis is striking them bitterly. I pray particularly for the hungry and desperate in Gaza Strip. Let your love pierce their existence, and free them from the shadows of devils that seek their ruin.
Bring peace to the Muslim world, and let the waves of violence emanating from extremists be broken by your iron scepter of power and your gracious hand of love.
Reconcile the Eastern and Western worlds, and let Catholics in every country do their part to serve you in acts and demeanors of charity and grace. Let them also please be the resolve in our countries to resist and repel the violence of Islamic extremism that seeks to destroy lives and souls.
Grant your Church courage and strength, resolve and power. Grant your Church also love and grace. Please grant that we do your will in the world. Guide our countries and our own lives. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
