Laudato Si’ – A Christian Prayer in Union With Creation

…Son of God, Jesus,
through you all things were made.
You were formed in the womb of Mary our Mother,
you became part of this earth,
and you gazed upon this world with human eyes.
Today you are alive in every creature
in your risen glory.
Praise be to you!

Reflection

In this America Magazine article titled, “In Mary’s womb, God enters creation—and brings creation back to God”, Father Terrance Klein says that “In Mary’s womb, creation becomes care. Care reveals who God is towards creation and who we must be toward it as well: those who care for it.”

Action

Find an example of indigenous wisdom or spirituality that upholds/respects creation and incorporate an expression of it into one of your prayers this week.
