Welcome to Creation Corner
Each week we’ll bring you news and information from the Laudato Si Circle here at the Church of St. Francis of Assisi. We hope that it will interest, inform, and inspire you.
In commemoration of All Souls, let us pray for our environmental martyrs, the many brave souls who lost their lives in speaking up and protesting social and environmental injustice in their communities, sometimes at the hands of their own governments.
Let’s also remember the many species we’ve lost, especially the Bramble Cay melomys, the first mammal to go extinct as a result of rising sea levels, and the Golden Toad who relied on the right amount of rain in order to reproduce.
To sense each creature singing the hymn of its existence is to live joyfully in God’s love and hope. — Catholic Bishops’ Conference of Japan 2000
