Today, Oct. 7 — Global day of prayer and fasting for peace
The Most Reverend W. Shawn McKnight, Bishop of Jefferson City, is asking all parishes, Catholic schools and individual parishioners, to join in a global day of prayer and fasting for peace on Monday, Oct. 7.
Bishop McKnight is encouraging all Catholics in our diocese to offer a Rosary for peace in our world.
Last week, Pope Francis issued the call for the day of praying and fasting, saying: “In this dramatic hour of our history, while the winds of war and the fires of violence continue to devastate entire peoples and nations,” the Christian community is reminded of its call to “put itself at the service of humanity.”
