Value Focus - Stewardship
A Prayer
All-powerful and ever-living God we do well always and everywhere to give you thanks.
All things are of your making. All times and seasons obey you. You chose to create us in your own image and set us over the whole world in its wonder.
You made us the stewards of creation, to praise you every day for your wisdom and power.
May we imitate your son, Jesus in his life of service.
May we be faithful stewards of all your gifts among the people of God.
Amen
Global Sustainability Goal Number 6- Clean Water and Sanitation
Clean, accessible water for all is an essential part of the world we want to live in and there is sufficient fresh water on the planet to achieve this. However, due to bad economics or poor infrastructure, millions of people including children die every year from diseases associated with inadequate water supply, sanitation and hygiene.
What are we doing to protect our water supplies to ensure sustainability in our dry continent?
