In response to a request from Sister Regina Camillieri of the North Community, ‘Just Mercy’ invites all sisters and friends to pray the following prayer for relief in the drought stricken areas of Australia and PNG. The period of prayer is from now until November 11, the 174th anniversary of Catherine’s death.

     God of all seasons
     in union with Venerable Catherine McAuley
     we pray for
     the people and places in
     Australia and Papua New Guinea
     suffering the effects of drought.

     Send abundant rain
     to give new life to
     stations, farmlands and gardens and
     to give new hope to
     the hearts of your people
     anxious about today and fearful for tomorrow.

     We ask this with confidence in your Mercy. Amen.
