Prayer service for the Season of Creation

The Season of Creation is marked throughout the Christian world from September 1st to October 4th (Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi) and celebrates the joy of creation as well as encouraging awareness-raising initiatives to protect the natural environment.

A special prayer service on the Season of Creation is available here in PDF or word document.

The Season of Creation has a special significance for the Catholic Church, particularly since Pope Francis established September 1st as an annual World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation. 

The theme for the Season of Creation 2021 is ‘Restoring Our Common Home’. During this season we are asked to join together to celebrate creation and protect our common home through prayer, reflection and action.

The global Christian family is called to awaken to the urgent need to heal our relationships with creation and with each other and to encourage our parish communities to do the same, “for we know that things can change!” (Laudato Si’, 13).
