Collect (Prayer):

Creator God,

you made the goodness of the land,

the riches of the sea

and the rhythm of the seasons;

as we thank you for the harvest,

may we cherish and respect

this planet and its peoples,

through Jesus Christ our Lord.

 

Bible Readings:

Deuteronomy 8.7-18, 2 Corinthians 9.6-end, Luke 12.16-30

 

Prayer After Communion:

Lord of the harvest,

with joy we have offered thanksgiving for your love in creation

and have shared in the bread and the wine of the kingdom:

by your grace plant within us a reverence for all that you give us

and make us generous and wise stewards

of the good things we enjoy; through Jesus Christ our Lord.
