Prayer of the Day: Climate Change
12-08-2009
Lord, we pray for our brothers and sisters who are particularly affected by climate change, for those in developing countries who feel the effects of increased droughts, increased floods, more extreme temperatures, and the political and social instability that accompanies such events. We also lift up our leaders as they convene in Copenhagen this week: let good come from that gathering. We pray in Jesus’ name, amen.
Comment Code of Conduct
I will express myself with civility, courtesy, and respect for every member of the Sojourners online community, especially toward those with whom I disagree—even if I feel disrespected by them. (

I will express my disagreements with other community members' ideas without insulting, mocking, or slandering them personally. (

I will not exaggerate others' beliefs nor make unfounded prejudicial assumptions based on labels, categories, or stereotypes. I will always extend the benefit of the doubt. (

I will hold others accountable by clicking "report" on comments that violate these principles, based not on
what ideas are expressed but on
how they're expressed. (
