Moscow, August 18, Interfax - The Russian Orthodox Church uplifts a special prayer for peace in the Caucasus.
It asks the Lord to grant peace "to everyone living in the Caucasus, especially to the long-suffering people of South Ossetia."
"Keep our people in love to each other, release of any hostility, take away all discords and temptations. Oh Lord, grant them harmony and good health, guard them against any sorrow, exasperation and sudden death, heal any enmity and anger implanted by the Satan," the prayer asks.
Besides, Patriarch Alexy II of Moscow and All Russia blessed to add some petitions asking God to deliver peoples of the Caucuses from "any hostility, disputes and internecine quarrel and grant them peaceful and prosperous life," protect them from afflictions with "peace and hosts of His angels," the Moscow Patriarchate website reports.
