St. Louis, Pray for Them
From Cardinal Dolan,
"Pope Francis has called for a Day of Fasting and Prayer for Peace in Syria, the Middle East, and the world to be held on September 7, 2013, the vigil of the birth of Mary, Queen of Peace. The Holy Father reminds us that "peace is a precious gift, which must be promoted and protected" and that "all men and women of good will are bound by the task of pursuing peace."
So the Pope wants us to pray that the Muslims stop killing...well, Muslims.And Christians, too, I guess. And Buddhists and Hindus. And their favorite targets, the Jews.

I think I'll ask St. Louis (who led the 7th and 8th Crusade) to intercede.
