The Season of Creation is just around the corner! Running from September 1 - October 4, the season brings together people from around the world to respond to the cry of the Earth. This year's theme is "to hope and act with Creation" and highlights the profound relationship between humans and the natural world. The season begins this Sunday, which is World Day of Prayer for Care of Creation. Consider joining with people around the world at the Prayer Service for Creation Day (9:00 a.m. Eastern time). For the Love of Creation, a faith-based climate initiative which KAIROS supports, is collecting Canadian resources to supplement what is available on the Season of Creation website. Find the resource list here in English or here for a piece or two in French. The children's creation care magazine is a particular highlight of both lists! It is not too late to add resources. Please send a link and a short description to flc.pac@gmail.com. For the Love of Creation (FLC) is also calling on you to use the Season of Creation to spark a Faithful Climate Conversation in your congregation or community. Help us log 100 Faithful Climate Conversations this year! You can start by following the FLC social media on Facebook or Instagram. Posts and stories throughout the season will share inspiration and guidance on how to hold your own Faithful Climate Conversation using the prepared guides as they are, or adapting them to suit your situation. |
