C&SI - Season of Creation 2024 - 1st Sept 2024 (S04E40b) (podcast excerpt)
Manage episode 437489781 series 2857376
On this weeks podcast, the C&SI team is joined by Jane Mellet from Trocaire to talk to us this week about the 2024 Season of Creation which starts on 1st Sept 2024 until Oct 4th with the theme "To Hope and Act with Creation".
In the letter of Saint Paul to the Romans, we see the biblical image of the Earth groaning (Rom 8:22). Today we hear the cry of the Earth all around us. The times we live in show that we are not relating to the Earth as a gift from our Creator, but rather as a resource to be used. And yet, there is hope and the expectation for a better future. To hope in a biblical context does not mean to stand still and quiet, but rather actively striving for new life amidst the struggles.
The Season of Creation has a special significance for the Catholic Church, particularly since Pope Francis established 1 September as an annual World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation following on the example of the Ecumenical Patriarch Bartholmew. The Season of Creation is marked throughout the Christian world from 1 September to 4 October (Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi) and celebrates the joy of creation as well as encouraging awareness-raising initiatives to protect the natural environment.
Resources available for this year:
- Irish Bishops Conference resources - here
- Trocaire resources
- Season of Creation - 2024 resources
- Laudatio Si Movement resources
