A Prayer for the Feast of St. Francis

        

"What great claws you have!"

O Lord, grant us the grace to respect and care for your creation. 
Lord, hear our prayer. 

O Lord, bless all of your creatures as a sign of your wondrous love. 
Lord, hear our prayer.

 O Lord, help us to end the suffering of the poor and bring healing to all of your creation. 
Lord, hear our prayer. 

O Lord, help us to use our technological inventiveness to undo the damage we have done to your creation and to sustain your gift of nature. 
Lord, hear our prayer.
