Care of Creation

Care of Creation

The Season of Creation begins on Sept. 1 with the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, and runs until Oct. 4, the feast of St. Francis of Assisi. This year’s Season of Creation is focusing on “protecting the web of life in all its variety, because each species reveals the glory of the Creator.”

NCR’s Season of Creation Daily starts Sunday

Beginning Sunday, Sept. 1, NCR will publish Season of Creation Daily, a brief reflection sent to your inbox on each of the Season’s 34 days.

The daily reflections are authored by Peter McLoughlin, a member of the Care for Our Common Home committee at the Paulist Center in Boston. He said he designed the brief messages as “an opportunity to pause each day of the Season, reflect with gratitude on the gift of creation, consider the plight of the Earth and of those most impacted by environmental problems, and discern how we are called to respond.”
