In the beginning, Lord our God, you gave us the marvellous gift of life!
Unceasingly, you maintain in us this permanent miracle of existence.
To experience Life within ourselves and to taste its joy.
Acknowledging this gift and giving you thanks for it also leads us to make it a right for every human being.
Your Word calls us to watch over the fragility of life for those who have no identity and no security,
because only walking in solidarity can lead us to a land of opportunity.
