A Prayer

in time of national anxiety occasioned by threat of Foot and Mouth Disease


Archbishop Dermot Clifford invites all to join in prayer at this time and provides the following text

 


A Family Prayer
Creator God and Father of all,
    You entrust the world to our care
    and set it teeming
    with the beasts of the fields for our benefit.

For this abundance we thank you.
    Now we turn to you
    at this time of national anxiety,
    for across this season of birth and new life
    moves the shadow of disease and destruction.

Lord, give us the wisdom
    to work together for the good of all;
    watch over all whose livelihoods
    are threatened by this plague;
    guide all who strive to protect farm animals
    from Foot and Mouth Disease.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.

 


This prayer may be followed by a decade of the Rosary or some other familiar prayer.

 

A Family Prayer
Creator God and Father of all,
    You entrust the world to our care
    and set it teeming
    with the beasts of the fields for our benefit.

For this abundance we thank you.
    Now we turn to you
    as our national anxiety is allayed,
    as the threat of disease is lifted
    and we return to our familiar lives with new awareness.

We thank you for hearing our prayer
    and ask your help that we may come
    to the assistance of those less fortunate than ourselves.

Lord, give us the wisdom
    to continue to work together for the good of all;
    inspire all whose livelihoods
    were threatened by Foot and Mouth Disease
    to care for your creation according to your will.
We ask this through Christ our Lord. Amen.
