Let Justice and Peace Flow: – Season of Creation, 2023.

The Season of Creation begins on September 1, World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, and ends on October 4, the feast of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron saint of ecology beloved by many Christian denominations. Individuals and communities are invited to participate through prayer, sustainability projects and advocacy.

“Let Justice and Peace Flow” is the theme chosen for Season of Creation 2023.

“A mighty river” (Amos 5:24) is the symbol chosen to go with this theme, representing biodiversity at risk. The urgency grows and we must make visible peace with Earth and on Earth, at the same time that justice calls us to repentance and a change of attitude and actions.

All are invited to join the river of justice and peace on behalf of all creation and to converge our individual identities, of name, family or faith community, in this greater movement for justice, just like tributaries come together to form a mighty river.
