  • Earth Hour

    Earth Hour


    27/03/2021

    Earth Hour is a worldwide event where participants turn off all powered items at 8:30 p.m. in their own time zone.   It's an expression of willingness to be good stewards of the earth - our shared home!

    It's an opportunity to enjoy a candle-lit dinner or bath or just sit and reflect with others in the darkness or with candles.

    Here's a video from 2020 to help reflect on this event.

    A PRAYER FOR EARTH HOUR

    Creator God, we give thanks for the wonders of creation;

    for the natural resources that provide us with power,

    which in turn can allow development in so many areas.

    For when we have not used this power responsibly - we ask forgiveness.

    We pray for all working to harness the power of creation.

    May they do this with compassion and sensitivity,

    mindful that the earth is a home shared

    with our fellow human beings and countless amazing creatures.

     

    We pray this in your Holy Name. AMEN
