Walk, Pray, Water - 1000 Prayers for Water
Start: 10:00 am
End: 3:00 pm

Sauble Beach, Ont.

Our bodies are roughly 70 percent water. There is no life without water. The earth’s rivers and lakes are the umbilical cord that nourishes us, while the oceans are our collective amniotic fluid. The Great Lakes are the largest system of fresh, surface water on earth, containing roughly 18% of the world supply, providing drinking water to 8.5 million Canadians. In contrast, worldwide, one billion people lack access to safe drinking water. Let’s give thanks to the water that nourishes us, pray for its protection, and offer it our blessing.
