Pray > Prayers on poverty > Lord, I come to do your will (Father Michael Fitzsimmons/CAFOD)

Pray > Prayers on poverty > Lord, I come to do your will

Prayer: Lord, I come to do your will

Lord, allow my ears to listen to the cry of the earth,

the voices of my sisters and brothers,

those who face the hash reality of climate change.

Lord, I come do your will.

 

Lord, allow my eyes to see the beauty of creation.

In flowers, creatures, forests, and cities alike.

Lord, I come do your will.

 

Lord, allow my voice to speak out for justice,

and ensure people living in poverty are heard.

Lord, I come do your will.

 

Lord, allow my hands to care for the earth,

To toil, to recap, to celebrate.

Lord, I come do your will.

 

Lord, allow my feet to take the path less trod,

to walk the extra mile,

to take your message out to the world

Lord, I come do your will.

 

Father Michael Fitzsimmons/CAFOD

Christmas , Christmas... Extreme poverty in the USA

This Christmas time may help us to understand that poverty is here around us.

I share an article from the Washington post about Extreme poverty in the USA. Read here https://www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/news/made-by-history/wp/2017/12/21/extreme-poverty-returns-to-america/

Some day ago I shared an article in Italian that shows that children suffer nutritional problem and poverty here in Europe and in particular there is a scientific research about this problem in six Italian cities and the first results are from Milan (Milano - Italy - Europe) and you can read here
