Father, on the World Day of Prayer for the
Care of Creation, we come before You
with grateful hearts, for the beauty and harmony
You have bestowed upon our world.
Grant us the wisdom to understand the connection
of all living beings and the responsibility to protect
and nurture our earth.
Guide us in making choices that promote the environment
and give us the courage to stand against exploitation,
pollution, and any harm inflicted upon the earth.
Bless the efforts of those working tirelessly
to safeguard the environment.
May they be instruments of Your healing
and restoration in the world.
We ask for Your grace and blessings
through Christ our Lord, who showed us
the way of love and stewardship.
Amen.
