THANK YOU, FATHER, FOR FALL

From the torment never;
As we move into a very beautiful time of the year Vain the tyrant's sharpest aim,
with the changing landscape, I'd like to have us Vain each fierce endeavor:
offer the following prayer by Pope Francis from his For by faith they saw the land
encyclical Laudato Si: On Care for Our Common Decked in all its glory,
Home (246):
Where triumphant now they stand 


Sing the victors' story.
All Powerful God, you are present in the whole universe

and in the smallest of your creatures.
You embrace with your tenderness all that exists.
Pour out upon us the power of your love,

that we may protect life and beauty.
Fill us with peace, that we may live

as brothers and sisters, harming no one.

O God of the poor, help us to rescue the abandoned and forgotten of this earth, so precious in your eyes.
Bring healing to our lives, that we may protect the world
and not prey on it, that we may sow beauty, not pollution and destruction.

Touch the hearts of those who look only for gain
at the expense of the poor and the earth.

Teach us to discover the worth of each thing,
to be filled with awe and contemplation,
to recognize that we are profoundly united with every creature as we journey towards your infinite light.

We thank you for being with us each day. Encourage us, we pray, in our struggle for justice, love and peace.
