The Season of Creation has a special significance for the Catholic Church, particularly since Pope Francis established 1 September as an annual World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation.
The Season of Creation, or Creation Time, is marked throughout the Christian world from 1 September to 4 October (the feast of St Francis of Assisi) and celebrates the joy of creation as well as encouraging awareness-raising initiatives to protect the natural environment.
Various liturgical resources prepared by the Laudato Si’ Working Group of the Bishops’ Council for Catechetics are available at here.
