Almighty God ~ Giver of All Good Gifts

Collect For Orange Shirt Day, September 30

Creator God, Sunkwiyatisu and Gitchi Manitou,
Of peace, justice, and concord;
Open our ears, our eyes, our lungs, and our hearts,
Give us the spirit of condolence.
Instill in us the Good Mind.
Let us seek your justice in a broken world,
Let us search for understanding in your Creation.
Help us to be reconciled to you and to each other.
In the self-giving ethic of the Cross,
Let us be emptied of hatred and apathy,
Greed and selfishness.
Fill us with the wideness and wildness of your Spirit,
In the name of your First Son, Jesus Christ,
We ask all this. Amen.

The Anglican Church of Canada

We Give Thanks
For Creation 

God of unchangeable power,
when you fashioned the world,
the morning stars sang together &
the host of heaven shouted for joy;
open our eyes to the wonders of creation &
teach us to see all things for good,
 Amen.
