Manila Archdiocese urges prayers for world peace amid Middle East tensions
The Archdiocese of Manila has urged the faithful to offer prayers for world peace, particularly in light of escalating tensions in the Middle East.
Archbishop Cardinal Jose Advincula issued a circular requesting organized communal prayers, Eucharistic Adoration, rosary sessions, and Masses for global peace.
The archdiocese specifically asked for prayers for peace in the Middle East, Ukraine, and worldwide, invoking God to cleanse the world of violence and greed.
The call to prayer follows Pope Leo XIV's appeal for peace during his Angelus message on Sunday.
The circular was released after Iranian President Masoud Pezeshkian declared an 'end of the 12-day war' and directed efforts towards reconstruction following missile attacks.
