Join the Pope in Calling for a

Ceasefire & Peace in Ukraine!

Pope Francis announced that the Vatican is on a diplomatic mission to achieve a ceasefire and peace in Ukraine. We ask that people everywhere speak to their religious congregations and community associations about the urgency of a ceasefire and peace in Ukraine and issue a similar call now!

We are grateful for the Pope’s mission to secure a peaceful resolution to a war that never should have been launched in Ukraine.  IT’S TIME TO STOP THE KILLING AND DEVASTATION IN UKRAINE. CEASEFIRE AND PEACE NEGOTIATIONS NOW!

As people of conscience who value human life, we encourage others to support a call for a ceasefire and diplomatic resolution to the war in Ukraine.  We ask that religious leaders issue a public call urging their congregants to support a ceasefire.

The war in Ukraine has left hundreds of thousands dead or wounded, uprooted millions, contaminated land, air, and water, and worsened the climate crisis. The longer the war drags on, the greater the danger of spiraling escalation, which can lead to a wider war, environmental devastation, and possible nuclear confrontation.

Every day this war continues, more lives are lost, more people become refugees, and we edge closer to risking global nuclear annihilation. The fate of the world rests on all of our shoulders.  Together, let us stand up and speak out now to end the war. May the miracle of peace prevail. 

Peace is a Victory for All!
