Heavenly Father, we gather before You, seeking Your divine protection and guidance during this time of inclement weather. As the atmospheric pressure drops and storm clouds gather, we turn to You, our shelter and refuge.
Lord, You are the Creator of all things, and You hold the power of the elements in Your hands. We ask that You shield us from the fierce winds and torrential rains. Safeguard our University, our homes, and our communities from the destructive forces of nature.
Blessed Mother, Star of the Sea, intercede for us. As the barometric pressure changes and the weather becomes volatile, help us to remain calm and trust in Your maternal care.
St. Joseph, Guardian of the Holy Family, watch over us as we brace for the impact of this storm. Guide the hands of meteorologists and emergency responders, giving them wisdom and clarity as they use their knowledge of weather patterns and predictive models to keep us safe.
St. Thomas Aquinas, patron of students, guide us in our pursuit of knowledge. As we study meteorology, hydrology, and other scientific disciplines, help us to apply our understanding to predict and mitigate the effects of storms, always remembering that true wisdom comes from God.
St. Albert the Great, patron of scientists, inspire us with a spirit of curiosity and discovery. May our studies in atmospheric sciences, climate change, and environmental sustainability lead us to develop solutions that protect and preserve Your creation.
Lord Jesus, who calmed the stormy seas, grant us peace amidst the turbulence. Help us to remember that even in the midst of the strongest tempest, Your love and protection surround us.
We place our trust in You, knowing that You are with us always. May the science of weather forecasting and the faith of Your people work together to bring safety and calm.
In Your Holy Name, we pray.
Amen.
