URI Stories of Impact

For the Animals

This beautiful prayer, written by Kiran Bali, URI Global Council Chair, calls our attention to honor and care for animals.

A World at Peace

Three fervent prayers powerfully call people everywhere to pray for a world at peace. These prayers are offered by: Right Reverend William Swing, Audri Scott Williams, and by May Peace Prevail On Earth International.
