Creationtide

Each year during Creationtide we are encouraged to focus on the wonderful world that God has created and to spend time interacting with nature.

Creationtide 2025

This year the season runs from 1 September - 4 October, with the theme Peace with Creation, based on Isaiah 32:14-18. The prophet Isaiah pictured the desolated Creation without peace because of the lack of justice and the broken relationship between people and God. This description of devastated cities and wastelands reveals how human destructive behaviours have a negative impact on the Earth.

Our hope: Creation will find peace when justice is restored. There is still hope and the expectation for a peaceful Earth. To hope does not mean to stand still and quiet, but to act, pray, change, and reconcile with Creation and the Creator in unity, repentance and solidarity.
