Big Ben’s “Silent Minute,” as it
has come to be known, is now
traveling nationwide thanks to
the efforts of the faithful living
in Le Roy, NewYork. Research
showsEuropehas reinstated their
own“SilentMinute,”at this time.
TheSilentMinute refers toan invi-
tation toeveryone, nomatterwhat
race, religion,orgender, tostop for
justoneminuteat9:00p.m. topray
for thewellbeingofourcountryup
to the election andbeyond.
The Silent Minute has been
used before when England
was faced with being overrun
by the German army. Winston
Churchill appealed to Parlia-
ment and to theBritishKing to
pledgeoneminuteof silence (as
indicated by nine commanding
peals when Big Ben struck
Nine O’Clock.) Millions of
people everywhere observed
this powerful nightly ritual. To
their wonderment and delight,
Germany lost thewar.
We, too, are at a critical time in
ournation’shistory.Ourheritage,
our values and our security are
at great risk. Many people have
become aware of the need for
a positive universal energy. For
thosewhowould like tostartwith
a prayer, we suggest this:
HeavenlyFather,
We are thankful for all that we
have.Weask thatyouprotect this
nation, this state, andcommuni-
ty.Pleaseshelterandprotectour
homeland and families. We ask
this in the name of Jesus Christ
our Lord. Amen
If you would like to, set your
clocks and join the Village of
Le Roy every night at 9:00 p.m.
for your own Silent Minute of
earnest prayer for thewell being
of our county.
