A journalist's prayer

by: Mariz Ponti


Almighty Father,
We are faced with a great challenge now. A few (months/weeks) ago, more than 40 journalists were massacred in Maguindanao. Never has been a great loss of lives in the journalism industry than that of this incident.
We pray that their souls are given the justice they need. Father, guide and envelope their families with you grace so that they may move on.
Father, we, young journalists, are faced too with a great challenge. Let this not be a hindrance to our dreams and aspirations to continue taking the journalists' path as we announce the truth through media.

Amen.
