Season of Creation (Sept 1st - Oct 4th)
Season of Creation
This September is the international Season of Creation [September 1 to October 4]. Will you give over one Sunday to stopping, reflecting and committing to action for God’s earth?
This year, the global reach of Covid 19 has revealed anew our shared human nature and the interconnectedness of our lives, economies, health care systems, food chains, energy and transportation systems. The pandemic has also demonstrated that this complex web is rooted in the earth and limited by the earth’s capacity to sustain our needs.
As we participate in the Season of Creation, may we unite as one family in Christ to celebrate the abundant gifts of God’s earth, and the bonds that we share with each other and ‘every living creature’ (Genesis 9:10).
A range of excellent materials is available to help us plan a service and go further in committing to environmental action as a church over the coming year. We recognise that for some, engaging with this may be difficult at present; in recognition of this, the resources have been designed to be used at any time.
For those of you who want to go deeper, the Radical Presence 7-week course is freely available from Green Christian, and explores the links between the coronavirus and climate crises.
