The Season of Creation

| Season of Creation |

This fall at Fairfield United Church, we’re entering a sacred season—a time to listen with our whole being to the groaning and glory of the Earth. The Season of Creation invites us not only to care for the world, but to love it—to see the rivers and trees, the birds and sky, as kin. As we immerse ourselves in the beauty and ache of this fragile, living planet, something deep within us begins to unfold. We are drawn beyond rules and responsibilities into reverent relationship. We move from stewardship to kinship. From duty to devotion.

 Here, we remember: the Earth is not a resource. It is our neighbour. Our sibling. Our beloved.

And when we love something deeply, we will rise to protect it.

Through prayer, story, art, and action, we will journey together into a new way of seeing—and being—in the world. This is a season for sacred reconnection. A time to honour the cries of creation and respond with persistent, practical, prophetic hope.

Come and be part of the soul’s unfolding—grounded in wonder, nourished by beauty, and moved by love.

September has long been called the Crying Month, when Indigenous children were taken from their families and sent to Residential Schools, leaving parents and communities in deep grief. Facing this history is painful, and some have turned away from the church because we name these truths. But looking away changes nothing. The call of God—and the challenge of Jesus’ parable—is to confront what is hard, to take responsibility as a society, and to move from lament toward faithful action and reconciliation.
