Calendar
The Season of Creation calendar has been revised to make it more international and ecumenical in character and more adaptable to the calendar expectations of different countries and traditions. Each community and country is; of course, free to modify this calendar so that it fits the dates, days and themes of the local situation.
The basic pattern for this calendar is:
September 1 – Day of Creation (as in Orthodox traditions)
Four Sundays – four domains of creation e.g, Forest, Land, Ocean and River Sundays
St Francis of Assisi Day
Blessing of the Animals
Special Sunday – appropriate to the country or community
Second Sunday in October – Final Sunday of the Season
THE SEASON OF CREATION – 2019 Series C: Wisdom in Creation
