Justice Seeking: Pursuing peace

Our reflections tie in with the Justice Seeking Church material that churches are being encouraged to use during June. You can find out more here.

Peace and justice are woven together- without justice there cannot be lasting peace. Poverty, discrimination and climate breakdown all contribute to unrest and violence, leading to wars and more people having to flee their homes. We need peace in our relationships as well as an end to war, and leaders with the courage to make difficult decisions to avoid escalating into war.

Reflect on where there is war, unrest and injustice around the world. Pray for God’s peace, the true peace that comes when there is justice, to cover our world.
