JPIC 2015

Season of Caring for Creation  September  1st – October 4th, 2015

Starts: September 1 – World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation

Pope Francis recently proclaimed it as a day of prayer for creation, as the Orthodox Church has done since 1989, to “draw from our rich spiritual heritage the reasons which feed our passion for the care of creation.”

Ends: October 4 – Solemnity of Saint Francis of Assisi

As our Seraphic Founder, Saint Francis gives us a model to imitate, celebrate and reflect on as the Patron of Ecology and author of the Canticle of the Creatures.
