God of splendor, the earth trembles before you. In awe we pray: 

God, in your goodness, hear our prayer. 

Inspire efforts to uphold the sanctity of life, from conception to death. 

God, in your goodness, hear our prayer.  

Help us to be mindful of our interconnectedness with all of creation. 

God, in your goodness, hear our prayer.  

Prosper efforts to ensure adequate health care for all people, particularly those who have fewer resources. 

God, in your goodness, hear our prayer.  

Our Father . . . 

May God strengthen us to be generous in spirit and rich in love, through Jesus, the Sower of good seed. Amen.
