Prayers for the World

  • For young adults struggling with transitions.
  • For new ideas and growing focus on supporting our planet during climate week (September 17-24)
  • For the 75,000 people who filled the streets of midtown Manhattan last Sunday to send a message to the world and leaders coming to the city for the U.N. General Assembly: End fossil fuels. More than 700 grassroots groups together called on President Joe Biden to declare a climate emergency, stop all federal approvals for new fossil fuel projects, phase out production of fossil fuels on federal public lands, and build a new clean energy future. 
  • For Rep. Jennifer Wexton, a Virginia Representative to the US Congress, who announced that she won't seek reelection, citing a new diagnosis of progressive supra-nuclear palsy, a "Parkinson's on steroids." 
  • For the US Congress as it works to avert a shutdown of the federal government if a budget agreement is not reached by September 30.
  • For peace between all nations, climate and environmental justice and health for all.
