Warning against a humanitarian catastrophe in Gaza and ongoing conflicts elsewhere, Pope Francis has called for a day of fasting, penance and prayer for peace in the world on Friday, October 27,2023. The Holy Father is urging all people of faith to take “just one side in this conflict: that of peace. But not with words, with prayer, with total dedication;” and invites men and women of every Christian denomination and other religions as well, and all people committed to the cause of peace, to participate in any way they feel is appropriate. To this end, there will be an hour of prayer starting at 6 p.m. Rome time in St. Peter’s “imploring for peace in the world.”
