Living Faithfully in the Time of Creation

For celebrating Creationtide mindfully in an age of environmental emergency, a resource from the Iona Community's Common Concern Network on the Environment.



Reflections, essays, hymns, songs and liturgical resources from more than twenty writers around the world, covering the twelve weeks from September, through the United Nations COP conference ... and future years.



Creator God, we give thanks

that we have heard the Spirit of God

in the freshening leaves

and the rush of water.

So we pray for the creation

which nourishes and sustains all that lives.

Renew in us the sense of its value

that we may not squander its riches,

or so bend it to our will

that we find we have destroyed it.
