Prayer of Thanksgiving:
Thanks be to you, our Lord
Through our beloved Earth
whose arms embrace all forms of life
Thanks be to you, our Lord
Through our beloved Earth,
who sustains and governs even us
Thanks be to you, our Lord
Through our beloved Earth
whose flowers and fruit
delight and nourish us
Thanks be to you, our Lord
that justice can be glimpsed
and right directions taken
and that there's joy in this:
- to cry out for God's help
even as we offer what little is given to us.
We thank God for this Season of Creation
for the togetherness of churches who engage
and the faith that is enriched
the perspectives re-shaped
the resources re-purposed
for love and for justice
whatever may come!
Hallelujah anyway!
AMEN
