Day of Fasting and Prayer for Peace – August 22, 2025

Join Pope Leo and the faithful worldwide in prayer and fasting for peace, justice, and healing.

I invite all the faithful to take part in a day of fasting and prayer on August 22, imploring the Lord to grant us peace and justice, and to wipe away the tears of those who suffer because of ongoing armed conflicts. May Mary, Queen of Peace, intercede so that peoples may find the path of peace.

— Pope Leo XIV

Pray With Us for Peace

  • For those suffering from conflicts in the Middle East and Ukraine.
