Season of Creation

The Season of Creation (SOC) renews our relationship with God’s Creation. Christian denominations unite for this worldwide event to protect our common home. Our well-being is interwoven with the well-being of the Earth and all creatures who share it.

Amid the triple planetary crisis of climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution, many are despairing and anxious. As people of faith, we are inspired by hope in the resurrection. The SOC theme “To hope and act with Creation” is embodied in concrete actions to restore and protect God’s creation. A good beginning is to read a few pages from Laudate Deum by Pope Francis and to reflect and pray for our presence within Creation.
