A Prayer for the Country Family
WE BELIEVE that:
Farming is a noble Christian occupation.
The farm home is a most suitable place to
rear a Christian family.
The good earth is the greatest material gift
of God to man.
WE KNOW that:
In this vocation we country people work
closely with God in producing the essential
elements of life.
By making ourselves aware of the special
graces and opportunities of this way of life,
and by cooperating with them, we and our
families can most readily give glory to God
and grow in holiness and happiness.
The earth returns greatest honor to God
when through our care and labor, it brings
forth an abundance for our family's needs
and those of society, for this generation
and for those to come.
A Prayer for the Country Family, continued
