C&SI - Season of Creation 2025 - 31 Aug 2025 (S05E38b) (podcast excerpt)

On this weeks podcast/programme the C&SI team are joined by Roisin Alexander-Pye from Trocaire to share with us about the Season of Creation 2025 which runs from 1st September to 4th October 2025. This year’s Season of Creation has as its theme “Peace with Creation”, inspired by the passage from Isaiah 32:14-18; “My people will abide in a peaceful habitation, in secure dwellings, and in quiet resting places.”  In a world of challenges and division, marked by war and climate change, how can we as people of faith create and work towards peace with creation?The Season of Creation has a special significance for the Catholic Church, particularly since the late Pope Francis established 1 September as an annual World Day of Prayer for the Care 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. In the Catholic Church 1st September is also set aside as the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation. Roisin takes us through some ideas that could be used at local level liturgically as well as other resources for those that want to explore Pope Francis encyclical Laudatio Si.Irish Bishops Conference resource pageTrocaire - Season of Creation 2025Season of Creation website for 2025Laudatio Si Movement - Season of Creation 2025Text us at +353 874668950 or email at [email protected]
