Happy World Environment Day! 💚🌍💙
As Christians, we believe caring for God’s creation is not an optional extra. It is part of our shared mission, namely the Fifth Mark of Mission which calls on us ‘to strive to safeguard the integrity of creation, & sustain & renew the life of the earth’.
As communities around the world face the impacts of climate change, biodiversity loss & environmental damage, we pray for courage, wisdom & hope.
🙏 God of creation,
teach us to love the earth as your gift,
to listen to those most affected by environmental harm, & to act with justice, compassion & care.
Amen 🙏

For Anglicans, caring for God’s creation is not an optional extra. It is part of our shared mission. The Fifth Mark of Mission calls us ‘to strive to safeguard the integrity of creation, and sustain and renew the life of the earth’.
As communities around the world face the impacts of climate change, biodiversity loss and environmental damage, we pray for courage, wisdom and hope.
God of creation,
teach us to love the earth as your gift,
to listen to those most affected by environmental harm,
and to act with justice, compassion and care.
Amen.
