Holocaust Memorial Day 2010 marks 65 years since the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau. On it we can become part of The Legacy of Hope our responsibility is to remember those who were persecuted and murdered. Our challenge is to make the hopes of victims and survivors of the Holocaust and subsequent genocides part of our future.
A Prayer for Holocaust Memorial Day.
Lord, remember not only the men and women of goodwill, but also those of ill will. Do not remember all the sufferings they have inflicted upon us; remember the fruits we bear, thanks to this suffering – our comradeship, our loyalty, our humanity, courage, generosity, the greatness of heart which has grown out of all this. And when they come to judgement, let all the fruits that we have borne be their forgiveness.
