Prayer for Loving our Neighbours and Care for Creation

This month, let us pray for love and care, embracing one another with kindness and protecting God’s creation as a reflection of His boundless love. Our thanks to Leoner Pongos for recording this prayer for us. Leoner is a member of the Hirang ng Hiraya, a youth organisation for Ecology and IRD of our Mother of Perpetual Help Parish in Barra, Philippines, a parish run by the Columbans.

Prayer for Loving our Neighbours and Care for Creation

Loving God,

You have called us to love one another as You have loved us, with a love that is selfless, boundless, and true.
Fill our hearts with Your love, so that we may extend it to our neighbours, embracing each person with kindness, compassion, and understanding. Help us to see Your image in everyone we meet, and to love them as our brothers and sisters. Teach us, too, to love Your creation. May we care for the Earth with reverence, recognising the beauty and wonder of all that You have made. Let our love for the world reflect Your glory, as we nurture and protect the life that surrounds us. Guide us to live in harmony with one another and with nature, fostering peace and unity in all we do. May our love be a testament to Your presence in our lives, inspiring others to join us in caring for our common home and for each other.

Amen.
