Pirrewitje Prays for Peace in the Forest
Today is a very special day—it’s World Day of Prayer for Peace. Pirrewitje hears that children all over the world are praying the rosary today. He gets an idea! “Let’s pray for peace together!” he says excitedly.
Pirrewitje gathers all his friends and takes them to the little chapel of Mother Mary, hidden deep in the forest. They bring flowers and leaves to decorate the chapel. “Mary will be so happy,” Pirrewitje says with a smile.
Together, they make the sign of the cross and begin their prayers. They pray the ‘Apostles’Creed‘, ‘Our Father‘ and three ‘Hail Marys.’ Then they pray the rosary, with five decades for peace in the world. When they finish, they sing joyful songs for Mary.
Pirrewitje and his friends feel happy and peaceful, knowing they have done something beautiful for peace.
