Righteous God, justice is your song. On this first day of autumn we joyfully pray: ℟. God, in your steadfast love, hear our prayer.
Inspire all people to act on behalf of the health and stability of the earth and her resources. ℟.
Unite people in efforts to curb food waste and oversee a just distribution of the world’s food. ℟.
Help us to secure just wages and safe conditions for migrants, farmers, gardeners, and all who work the land. ℟.
Our Father . . .
May God strengthen us to act justly, love tenderly, and walk humbly with Jesus, the Light of the World. Amen.
