Make Me an Instrument of Your Peace
Regular price $69.95Story
“Lord, make me an instrument of your peace.”
These familiar words begin one of Christianity’s best-loved prayers, expressing a simple but profound desire: to bring love where there is hatred, forgiveness where there is injury, hope where there is despair, and light where there is darkness.
Inspired by the prayer traditionally associated with St. Francis of Assisi, this plaque offers a lasting reminder that peace begins with the way we live and the kindness we extend to others.
A meaningful reflection on faith, humility, and the quiet work of bringing peace into the world.

Irish Heritage
Although commonly known as the Prayer of St. Francis, the prayer was first published in the early twentieth century and is not known to have been written by the saint himself. Its message, however, reflects the spirit of Franciscan spirituality: humility, compassion, simplicity, and a deep love for all creation.
St. Francis of Assisi (1181–1226) remains one of Christianity’s most beloved figures. His life of service and his reverence for all living things continue to inspire people around the world.
