Seasonal Resources - Season of Creation 2026
Season of Creation is a time (1 September - 4 October) for Christians to come together in prayer and action for God's creation. The season is celebrated as an alternative to the regular time after Pentecost.
The Season of Creation is an ecumenical response to the environmental crisis impacting the world. Each year has a particular themed focus connected with an aspect to the environment, to raise awareness and inspire responsible environmental action.
The following worship resources have been prepared in collaboration with Lutheran Earth Care Australia and New Zealand, endeavouring to point God’s people to the hope that we have in the midst of environmental chaos: Christ as the Redeemer of the world, who sustains all things by his powerful word, and will make all things new.
