Father of all,
Creator and ruler of the universe,
You entrusted your world to us as a gift.
Help us to care for it and all people,
that we may live in right relationship--
with You, with ourselves, with one another, and with creation.
Amen.

The roots of our faith are planted in the barren soil of Calvary, where Jesus, in death, made hope spring up. He opened the way to heaven; He gave us eternal life; He brought us salvation. #HolyWeek

The Supreme Court will hear oral arguments tomorrow in a case that could impact the widespread accessibility of abortion pills. We invite you to pray this prayer daily for the end of abortion & for the protection of women & pre-born children. bit.ly/3x4OqNn
