Dominican Month of Peace

Dominican Month of Peace 2025 Rosary for Cameroon

Mondays, December 1, 8, 15, and 22, 2025

Let us join in prayerful solidarity with the people of Cameroon. The JPIC Committee (Justice, Peace, Integrity of Creation) and friends will lead us in praying the Rosary via Zoom at 7 pm on Monday evenings during Advent, beginning tonight, December 1st, and then on December 8, 15, and 22, 2025. Each evening will start with someone offering a short reflection on Cameroon, followed by the rosary. Each decade has a special intention and picture.

Each year, from the first Sunday of Advent until the Solemnity of the Epiphany of the Lord, the Dominican Family celebrates the Dominican Month for Peace: a time of prayer and commitment focused on a country in the world facing situations of conflict.

This year, the focus will be on Cameroon, under the theme: “Truth and Justice for a Lasting Peace.” During this period, Dominican communities are called to organize pastoral activities, promote solidarity initiatives, and offer prayers for this African country.

Here is the letter to all members of the Dominican family and the explanation of the symbolism in the Peace 2025 poster.

Prayer for Lasting Peace in Cameroon

{O God the Trinity, Lord of Peace, you want your children to live in harmony and fraternity. We ask you to listen to our cries for Cameroon and its people who need more Peace in Truth and Justice. Send your Holy Spirit to root out the roots of discord, division, violence, hatred, corruption, injustice, and everything that does not honor the dignity of the human person. Let all the weapons of destruction of human dignity be silent to make room for all the weapons that restore man created in your image and resemblance. Give every believer the courage to be instruments of true peace, every citizen to work for reconciliation and trust, and leaders to make just and lasting decisions so that a world of joy may come into hope, of truth, justice and Peace in love and unity. We ask it of you through Jesus Christ, Prince of Peace for ever and ever. Amen!}
