COP31 Prayer Guide

As the world gathers in Antalya, Türkiye, for COP31, this moment calls for renewed hope, solidarity, and urgent action. COP31 is an important opportunity for world leaders to move beyond promises and make courageous decisions that advance climate justice, promote a just and equitable energy transition, strengthen support for communities facing climate impacts, and protect the rights and livelihoods of those who care for the Earth.

From the Jesuits, this prayer guide invites us to unite across communities, cultures, and nations in prayer for our world, for those most affected by the climate crisis, and for all those entrusted with making decisions about our planet’s future. Through these daily prayers and reflections, may we deepen our commitment to caring for Creation, listen more attentively to the cry of the Earth and the cry of the poor, and find the courage to turn our faith and hope into concrete action.

Let us pray together for COP31, for our leaders, for vulnerable communities, and for the future of our Common Home. May our prayers strengthen our shared commitment to climate justice and inspire us to become instruments of hope, transformation, and care for all Creation.
