A Prayer for Kabul

St. Thomas Church, Bloomfield, New Jersey
Our thoughts and prayers go out to the victims and families of the August 26th Islamists terror attack near the Kabul airport in Afghanistan. We pray justice is swiftly meted out to all those responsible for the attack. May Saint Thomas the Apostle, patron saint of Afghanistan, protect and watch over you. San Tommaso Apostolo, ora pro nobis.

Prayer for Victims of Terrorism


Loving God, welcome into your arms the victims of violence and terrorism. Comfort their families and all who grieve for them. Help us in our fear and uncertainty, and bless us with the knowledge that we are secure in your love. Strengthen all those who work for peace, and may the peace the world cannot give reign in our hearts. Amen.
