Corporate Voice: This week there have been and continue to be many disruptions in our world, often leading to violence. Some events are related to democracy. Other events are related to the economy. Still other events are related to natural resources. This week we pray for peace in our global community no matter the root cause and ask, how am I contributing to a more peaceful world?
