Change for Global Change

Change for Global Change Prayer

God, Creator and Sustainer of Life, we join with all of
your creation in a canticle of thanksgiving for the blessings
of the universe, especially the sacred gift of water, on
which our very life depends.

Forgive our wasteful use of all the precious resources
entrusted to our care.

Well-Spring of Life, send forth your empowering energy to
renew all the barren places of our parched Earth as
you renew us, Earth's caretakers.

May we go forth as ambassadors of hope, for all those
thirsting for your Life-giving Water. Amen
- Mary Kay Flannery, SSJ

Pope Benedict XVI, con’t. - - -

If you want to cultivate peace, protect creation. Protecting the natural environment in order to build a world of peace is thus a duty incumbent upon each and all. It is an urgent challenge, one to be faced with renewed and concerted commitment; it is also a providential opportunity to hand down to coming generations the prospect of a better future for all.
