PRAYER OF THANKSGIVING FOR GARDENS

God of grace, in the story of creation,

you made the earth a garden

and entrusted it to us to till and to keep,

a place of peace and beauty

where we could walk with you.

In the story of redemption,

the one who died for us was buried in a garden,

and there you raised him up

to greet us with new hope and risen life.

In the story of the Church,

you tend us as a garden,

a place of careful pruning and abundant harvest,

where we can work with you.

Meet us, we pray,

in all the gardens where we go

for nourishment, refreshment, and prayer,

through Jesus Christ our Lord.

Amen
