Great Mother of Peace Prayer

On our altar we have a Peace Candle.
In the daily lighting of this candle, we offer this prayer:

O Great Mother of Peace,
in the names of your children
and the children of your children,
We light this candle.
In reverence, in honor,
in gratitude and in remembrance of you.

O Holy Mother, O Spiritual Mother
of the Divine Spark of Light
that you reflect and ignite in our souls,
Be here now.

We are called the Peacemakers,
Blessed are our ways.
We are known as the true children
of Divine Love and Divine Wisdom,
your spiritual children on Earth.

O Holy Mother, gather all of your children
and grace us with Peace on Earth now.

In extinguishing the candle:
O Holy Sophia,
May the sacred smoke from the fire
cover the earth like a mist,
May all people and nations
be under your influence and power
So that we might understand
the true meaning of love
and fulfill our dreams for Peace on Earth now.
Amena.*

Amen is a Hebrew word that means 'truly'.

Amena is an Arabic word that menas 'to make complete'.

Because we feel that it is the divine feminine that is lacking

to make the world complete, we use Amena at the end of our prayers.
