CDP Environment Day Prayer

Creator of Life, at Your world,

the Earth brought forth plants yielding seed and trees of every kind bearing fruit.

The rivers, mountains, minerals, seas and forests…

And throughout time the Earth has sustained life…

In your Wisdoms, you granted a Sabbath…

But these days our living pushes the planet beyond its limits…

During this Season of Creation, we ask you to grant us courage to observe a

Sabbath for our planet.

Strengthen us with the faith to trust in your province.

Inspire us with the creativity to share what we have been given.

Teach us to be satisfied with enough.

And as we proclaim a Jubilee for the Earth, send Your Holy Spirit to renew the face of creation. 

Amen.
