We live in a world of great beauty, but also in a world under threat.

Lord, we come to you in our fragility, trusting in your loving care and providence.
Please receive our prayers…

• for those impacted by and living in fear of wildfires in California, USA, and in any other regions of the world;
• for all your creatures threatened and fleeing from fire and destruction;
• for those who have lost their homes, their places of worship and work.

—Juliana Morillo, Teusaquillo Mennonite Church in Bogotá.
