Pray for New Orleans
I (Neil) am writing this on Sunday night. If anyone should chance to read this, please say a prayer for - and in solidarity with - New Orleans:
For Fair Weather. For use at times when the prayer for Fair Weather in the Book of Common Prayer seems less suitable.
ALMIGHTY God, our heavenly Father, who art the author and giver of all good things; Look, we beseech thee, in thy loving-kindness upon us: thine unworthy servants, and grant to us at this time such fair weather that we may receive the fruits of the earth in their season, to our comfort and the glory of thy holy Name; through Jesus Christ, our Mediator and Advocate. Amen.
(Scottish Book of Common Prayer, 1912)
