Stewards
of the Earth |
Our Catholic
faith calls to us through the teaching of Social Justice.
The seventh point reads:
CARE FOR
GOD’S CREATION: We show our respect for the Creator
by our stewardship of creation. Care for the earth is a
requirement of our faith. We are called to protect people
and the planet, living our faith in relationship with all
of God’s creation. This environmental challenge has
fundamental moral and ethical dimensions that cannot be
ignored.

Eco-Prayer
Creator, this is such a beautiful world,
both fragile and resilient.
Forgive us when we act as if this world belongs
to us,
rather than to you.
May our desire to love all of life grow;
may our ability to act lovingly toward all of
life grow.
Thank you for caring people and our time
together.
Help us to continue to support one another in our
journeys;
use us to bring about a world
more compassionate and just,
where all people and all creation
enjoy and share in life's bounty.
Amen.
