Prayer

A prayer for COP28

God, 
All-merciful Love,
Creator of all that is,
you created and keep creating
the world as a beautiful
process of relatedness.
Give us and all participants of COP 28
genuine love for the world
and the consciousness of its profound goodness.

God,
All-merciful Love,
Firstborn of the New Creation,
you redeemed and keep redeeming
this Creation from within,
and so make possible our conversion to life.
Give us and all participants of COP 28
the understanding of the world’s brokenness
and of your constant healing effort.

God,
All-merciful Love,
Breath of life,
you promised and keep promising
the Transfiguration of all wounds
and the Resurrection of your crucified Creation.
Give us and all participants of COP 28
your creative Spirit, hope-giving renewer of the world,
to contribute courageously to your New Creation.

Amen.

Fabian Moos SJ
