Carpool Reminders

• Children must stay seated in seats while in the carpool line.

God made the world, “ God made the world, “saw that it was good, saw that it was good, saw that it was good,” saw that it was good,” and gave it to us to care for and share. and gave it to us to care for and share. and gave it to us to care for and share.

In 2015, Pope Francis established September 1st as the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, encouraging Catholics around the world to pray for our common home. The day is inspired by Pope Francis' landmark encyclical Laudato Si’, which calls on "every person living on this planet" to care for our shared Earth.

In his letter establishing the day as an annual celebration, the Holy Father wrote that its purpose was to “offer individual believers and communities a fitting opportunity to reaffirm their personal vocation to be stewards of creation, to thank God for the wonderful handiwork which he has entrusted to our care, and to implore his help for the protection of creation as well as his pardon for the sins committed against the world in which we live.”

The World Day of Prayer marks the beginning of the Season of Creation, which is September 1st through October 4th and culminates with the feast day of St. Francis of Assisi, the patron of ecology and animals. The Season of Creation is the annual Christian celebration of prayer and action for our common home. Together, the ecumenical family around the world unites to pray for and act to protect God’s creation.

“Listen to the Voice of Creation” is the theme and invitation of this year’s Season of Creation. In his message for the World Day of Prayer 2022, Pope Francis calls us to use the season to "cultivate our ecological conversion” and to pray together in “the great cathedral of Creation.” He warns that we are reaching “a breaking point" and must act decisively so that "we and future generations can continue to rejoice in creation’s sweet song of life and hope.
