PRAYER AT ELECTION TIME
PRAYERS FOR REFUGEES
Refugees and their plight are rarely out of the news, but especially at the moment in the light of President Trump’s ban on immigrants from seven mainly Muslim countries. Here are some CAFOD prayers for refugees.
PRAYER FOR THE ENVIRONMENT – inspired by “Laudato Si’ “
Living God,
have mercy on us,
for the times we forget
that we belong to each other.
You call us to be still,
to hear the whisper of our Sister Wind,
to feel the radiance of our Brother Sun,
and to be nourished by our Mother Earth.
Renew us in your healing love.
Inspire us to water the earth,
and nurture one another,
so all may flourish.
Together, as one family,
may we always sing your praise.
Through Christ our Lord, Amen.
