Praying with Pope Francis for Our Common Home

Our Common Home 16 God of Community and Community Builders, help us to ensure that local populations have a special place at the table in planning that impacts them, for they are concerned about their own future and that of their children, and they consider goals beyond immediate economic interest. Amen. Based on Pope Francis’, “On Care for Our Common Home,” Laudato Si, paragraph 183 God of Wisdom, may we respect the laws of nature and protect the delicate equilibria existing between the creatures of this world. May we recognise that other living beings have their own value in your eyes, each in its own way r efle cting a ray of yo ur infini te wisdom and goodness. May we respect creation and its laws, remembering always that it is you, O God, who by your wisdom founded the earth (Prov 3:19) . Amen. Based on Pope Francis’, “On Care for Our Common Home,” Laudato Si, paragraphs 67 and Catechism 68
