Christian Reflection and Prayer

Prayer for Yom HaShoah
(Holocaust Remembrance Day)

Lord, remember not only the men of good will, but also
those of ill will. But do not remember all the suffering
they have inflicted upon us. Remember rather the fruits
we have brought, thanks to this suffering: our comradeship,
our loyalty, our humility, the courage, the generosity,
the greatness of heart that has grown out of this.
And when they come to judgment, let all the fruits
we have bourne be their forgiveness.
Appropriate for many faiths

"Father forgive them for they know not what they have
done" Amen
