Reflection

“The future will be green or not at all.” –Jonathon Porritt

Prayer

Loving Creator,

The warnings have been repeated so many times that we risk growing numb. Yet the truth remains. We are obliged to change our ways of living so that our children might have a world worth inheriting. By your mercy and grace, empower us, as individuals and as an organization, to become diligent and passionate practitioners of environmental stewardship. May we encourage our culture in the same direction, until we all are aware of the calling we’ve been given, as those made in your image, to protect the earth in your name and lead it to a beautiful future. Amen.

Call to Action

How do I live out my calling to care for creation? Is it time to renew my commitment or start a new practice? Take five minutes to reflect on these questions at some point today.
