Season of Creation “Let Justice and Peace Flow”

4th Oct 2023
Over the last number of weeks 6th Class have enjoyed engaging with and learning about the Season of Creation.

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.

This year’s theme is “Let Justice and Peace Flow” taking inspiration from the Prophet Amos who declares: “Let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream!” (Amos 5: 24). And so we are called to join the river of justice and peace, to take up climate and ecological justice, and to speak out with and for communities most impacted by climate injustice and the loss of biodiversity

Today to celebrate the end of the Season of Creation and the Feast of Saint Francis we spent some time examining his life and legacy.
