Our Prayers for Peace in Israel

In celebration and commemoration of Yom Ha’Atzmaut and Yom Ha’Zikaron last week, Year 7 students began their exploration of Teffilah (prayer) by writing a collective Prayer for Peace in Israel.

I wish for peace in Israel

Because it is where we belong

We all stand together as one

As Jews, we stand together

I want no wars, no racism and equal amounts of money for all

Israel will be a cleaner country if there is no war

Wouldn’t it be nice if there were no bombings in Israel?

No war makes happiness

Protect the families in Israel

We can all live free

We can all live with peace and harmony

I wish for peace for the Land and the People

I hope for happiness for the Children of Israel

The Land of Israel deserves to be treated with peace and harmony

Amen

I pray for the land and the community that there will be no more violence.

I wish for love to be spread in all of Israel!

I wish that someday Israel will not grieve but smile in happiness

I wish that there was more happiness on people’s faces

I wish for peace in Israel, and for the tears of joy not pain

I wish for everlasting peace in Israel

The fighting between nations, the biting between siblings will always be there

until peace comes to put it all away                                                

I pray for soldiers and families to have pride and love

I wish for the children to be able to play outside together with no danger around them

May God bless the Holy Land and its beauty.

I want to see all the proud Israelis standing for their country not fallen

I pray for all the soldiers that have gone to war

I wish for peace in Israel because if world peace was a real thing,

then there would be no wars, no racism and

the world be a safe and happy place

I wish for peace in Israel, and for the tears of joy not pain.

I wish for peace in Israel so that families won’t have to suffer from loss of their loved ones,

so that everyone is happy and never saddened by that

I pray for the wealthy and the poor, the employed and unemployed

I pray for soldiers and families to have pride and love

May God bless the Holy Land and its beauty.

Try to prevent war as life is everything and family to spend it with

I hope they can recover and live in peace                

I hope that one day Israel won’t have to live in fear of war

Watch over the State of Israel and guard its people.
