Welcome! We're glad you're planning on observing a liturgical season of creation. We have prepared some materials for you to use in worship, teaching, and personal reflection.

Creation Collects for Easter 6, Year A:

Fearless One, who left the daily care of Creation into our hands, awaken in us the fullness of your Spirit, that we may be emboldened to live truly sanctified lives. Teach us to trust your Word, that we may become the holy ones you intended, and live fully in you so you may shine fully in us, for you are God, creator, redeemer and sanctifier, now and forever. Amen.

Life-giving Savior, we pray that our desire to seek you does please you. Help us to be so keenly aware of your presence in our lives that we do not fall back into living only for ourselves, but live into the abundant web of creation you have set forth. Touch our souls with your eternal generosity, that the whole world may radiate the fullness of your love, through God our Creator, who with you and the Holy Spirit, lives and loves forever. Amen.
