Climate Change Prayer

Holy God,

earth and air and water are your creation,

and every living thing belongs to you:

have mercy on us

as climate change confronts us.

Give us the will and the courage

to simplify the way we live,

to reduce the energy we use,

to share the resources you provide,

and to bear the cost of change.

Forgive our past mistakes

and send us your Spirit,

with wisdom in present controversies

and vision for the future to which you call us

in Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
