OF THE CITY OF SANTA ANA
PROCLAIMING OCTOBER 18-24, 1970
AS A WEEK OF PRAYER FOR PEACE
WHEREAS, the United Nations was formed in San Francisco
in 1945 and has provided the nations of earth the broadest forum for the
discussion of problems that affect world peace; and
WHEREAS, our national leadership has continously supported
the United Nations and desires to establish a just peace throughout the
world; and
WHEREAS, that even though the United Nations has not achieved
its goal, world peace, it would be tragic to do anything but pursue the
objective of a just peace belween nations and people while respecting each
nation's own sovereignty and each person's own dignity;
With these facts in mind we acknowledge that the ideals of a just peace and
concern for others come from God alone and without God's help it is
impossible to have a just peace; we acknowledge that it is God who has
given us the Bible which has been the blueprint for our nation's Constitution;
we acknowledge that it is God who has placed an infinite value on the
individual human life;
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That we, the City Council
of the City of Santa Ana, as a reminder of our obligation first to God, then
our country, do hereby proclaim October 18-24, 1970 as:
"WEEK OF PRAYER FOR PEACE"
with the request that all of the people of Santa Ana join in prayer for our
leaders and representatives thai they may seek God's wisdom and st rength
in a task which is honorable and God ordained as stated in the Holy scripture,
"I exhort, therefore, that first of all, supplications, prayers, intercessions
and giving of thanks, be made for all men, for kings, and for all that are in
authority, thai we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and
honesty." (I Timothy 2:1-2)
