Every day is Earth Day
Perhaps this is late. Today is Earth Day and tomorrow is Earth Day Sunday. Perhaps this should have been sent sooner to allow people who plan worship to make use of the resources that follow the brief prayer. However, if your worship tomorrow does not include a focus on Earth Day, you could use some of these resources in your devotions. And, as my friend Melodee Bottari posted on her Facebook page – “Every day is Earth Day.”
A prayer for Earth Day
Creator God,
we come from the earth,
and we return to the earth.
In between, we live upon the earth.
within the great, wonderful web of life
you have created.
May we live wisely,
caring responsibly and well
for the earth
of which we are a part
upon which we depend
and which you hold in infinite love.
We pray in Jesus’ name.
Amen.
