to bring light into today’s ever increasing
chaos and darkness
where we have failed to be stewards
and carers of your creation.
Replenish our hearts
so that we too can renew the face of the earth.
Amen

Creator God,
Because of your abundant love
you chose to bring light and order
into the formless void,
to create a world of unsurpassed beauty
and you saw that it was good.
We ask that you continue to recreate the world
with that same attentive love,
