Dear Friends,

on the day of Thursday January 9, 2020 I invite you to spend 3 minutes praying for gentle, soft, slow, intermittent rain, cooler temps and the safety of all our people, animals, birds, reptiles and creatures that live in Australia, as well as the multitude of plants and trees. Please join in and send a wave of positive vibrations into the universe. All creeds, spiritualities and religions welcome. This is a pan-religious, non-denominational, prayer for safety and compassion for the Earth and our compatriots (human & other) in Australia.

After our prayer session on Sunday at this time we received 13 mls of rain, and a temperature drop of 30C degrees overnight (from 42C to 12C) and 2 days of cool which helped us rest, review and get on the "front foot" with the fires. The Werri Berri fire outside of Bemboka in the Bega Valley has burned over 20,000 hectares and continues to remain out of control at this time. Any wind or temperature increase can bring back imminent danger. Bega and Merimbula awoke to more smoke and ash today and already stressed people are heightened again. The watch is on.

Please join us in prayer.

Dear God, and all the heavenly angels and beings,

Please send us good, gentle, soft, slow, intermittent rain, cooler temps. Please keep all our people, animals, birds, reptiles and creatures that live in Australia, as well as the multitude of plants and trees on the land, safe.

We pray for this. We ask your help. Hear our prayer.

Please help us believe in the hope for renewed growth both in the land and in our hearts. Please fill us with compassion and kindness to others and believe in a positive future where we take responsible action for a more environmentally sustainable future to help stem the impacts of climate change.

We pray for this. We ask your help. Hear our prayer.

We pray for this. We ask your help. Hear our prayer.

Amen, Om shanti shanti, Namaste, Ameen.
