Season of Creation

As the Season of Creation starts this weekend we can look forward to events helping to celebrate & pray for our beautiful planet & learn more about how we can care for it, with God at the centre of all things.

This coming weekend we invite you to start sharing your home grown produce with others - we will also hold Harvest Gift processions during the Masses where we invite you to bring up an item to share as part of our fortnightly soup run... (individual wrapped chocolate biscuits, packs of crisps, packs of pocket tissues, tooth paste) or something to keep our Community Kitchen Cupboard stocked... (tins of tomatoes, tuna, ham, beans, or jars of coffee or pasta sauce, packs of kid's snacks or biscuits etc)

Anything you can donate to help with these local food poverty issues will be very much appreciated.

“Future generations will never forgive us if we miss the opportunity to protect our common home. We have inherited a garden; we must not leave a desert for our children.”
The joint statement made by Pope Francis, the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholomew and Archbishop Justin Welby of Canterbury.

“Creation cries out in suffering. We acknowledge the urgent call to action, and we acknowledge that we can only respond to it on the basis of faith. The Season of Creation is a source of strength and communion, encouraging us truly ‘to hope and act with creation.’”
Rev. Dr Anne Burghardt,
Lutheran World Federation General Secretary
