Season of Creation

Each year in the Season of Creation (1st Sept. to 4th Oct.), Pope
Francis calls on us to pray about how we can do our bit to help
resolve the crises affecting the climate and the environment

All powerful God and Father, you are present in the
universe and in the smallest of your creatures.
You love tenderly all that you have created. Pour out on
us the power of your healing love, so that we protect the
world around us and do not destroy it. Fill us with your
peace, so that we live as brothers and sisters, harming
no one. God of the poor, help us to rescue the
abandoned and forgotten who are so precious in your
eyes.
Touch the hearts of those who look only for gain at the
expense of the poor and the earth, and teach us to
discover the value of everything you have created.
We make this prayer through Jesus Christ, our Lord.
