Prayer For The Gift of Rain

The Catholic Church in Australia is dedicating the month of November as a time to pray for those affected by crippling drought conditions and to pray for the gift of rain. 

Remembrance Day Prayer

Living God,

We are called to remember the past- all those who lost their lives in the course of wars,

the horror they endured, the determination they displayed to defend the values we hold so dear,

the sacrifices they made so that we may enjoy lasting peace.

Lord in your Mercy, hear our prayer.

Bushfire Prayer

We pray for all those affected by the devastating bushfires in New South Wales and Queensland. We pray for all those who has been involved in trying to prevent the fires and for giving of their time and resources to support and assist others.

God, giver and sustainer of life,

For those whose homes are threatened by fire,

We ask for your mercy.

For those whose lives are threatened by flames,

We pray for your protection.

For those who have lost all their possessions,

We pray for your comfort.

For those whose health is impaired by smoke,

We pray for your healing.

Amen.
