Our prayers for all animals continue to circle the earth, to uplift humanity's consciousness, and to bless the animals themselves. Thank you for joining people around the world who are praying this prayer in many different languages but all with the same love:

"COMPASSION ENCIRCLES THE EARTH FOR ALL BEINGS EVERYWHERE"
Greetings of love and gratitude from Judy Carman

A Special Request from Susan in Australia:  Australian bush fires are often rampant during the Australian summer. Susan, a Prayer Circle member in Australia, notes that the media pays little attention to the animals, both the free ones and the imprisoned. Susan tells us that “many have died and been injured during the course of such disasters.  I have seen in bushfires, wildlife running frantically, trying to escape danger.  I have seen sheep, horses, standing immobile, not able to do anything while they are being scorched.  (I've seen all this on TV).  Bushfires are a 'normal' part of the Australian summer, yet I worry greatly for the animals that become victims to them. Bushfires in Australia inevitably mean disaster for the wildlife, domestic animals in the bush, and livestock.”
 
Prayer for the Week for Kangaroos, Wallabies, and All Animals in Australia: We give thanks for Susan who, like a guardian angel, watches over the animals in Australia and who reaches out to the hands of all of us as we join in our worldwide Prayer Circle. Let us imagine now our dedicated group standing in a grand circle (over 900 of us now, plus all the facebook friends and others reading this).  Then into the center of our circle let us bring the spirits of all the animals of Australia.  As they relax in the comfort and safety of our circle of love and compassion, let us join our hearts and minds with the Love that animates all living beings.  As we do this, the power of our love and healing and comfort grows exponentially.  Together we say “Dear animals of Australia, we truly see you.  We see you are our sacred brothers and sisters.  We love you, and we are working and praying for your safety from bushfires, for your permanent freedom, and for the awakening of humanity to reverence for all life.”  As we speak softly to them, we see the animals in our circle relaxing and receiving healing and hope-filled energy and, of course, as they always do, sending the same energy back to us. Let us breathe deeply with a quiet heart and hold this vision for a few minutes, all the while holding hands in the circle.  When it is time, we leave the circle and return to our daily activities, but we are renewed, and the animals are renewed.  We are now closer than ever to a world of peace for all beings everywhere.  

As always, with tears of gratitude, I send my thanks to each of you, dear Prayer Circle members, for joining this circle of compassion and shining the Light of Truth for all to see, so that one day soon, all beings will live in peace together.

May compassion and love reign over all the earth for all beings everywhere. 
Thank you all for your devotion to truth, love, liberation and peace for all beings.
With Love, peace, and gratitude from Judy Carman, and greetings from Will, Madeleine, Tara and the Circle of Compassion team
