Lenten Fast For Climate Justice


As Catholics we have three 
Lenten Practices.
 
Prayer
Fasting
Works of Love

The Global Catholic Climate Movement invites us to participate in a Lenten Hunger Fast.


“Please, I would like to ask all those who have positions of responsibility in economic, political and social life, and all men and women of goodwill:
let us be ‘protectors’ of creation,
protectors of God’s plan inscribed in nature,
protectors of one another and of the environment.
-- Pope Francis

Prayers of Petition

O Lord, grant us the grace to respect and care for your creation. 
             Lord, hear our prayer.

O Lord, bless all of your creatures as a sign of your wondrous love.
             Lord, hear our prayer.

O Lord, help us to end the suffering of the poor and bring healing to all of your creation.
             Lord, hear our prayer.

O Lord, help us to use our technological inventiveness to undo the damage we have done to your creation and to sustain your gift of nature.
             Lord, hear our prayer.
