Our Mother Earth is in peril and save Her we must! …
So, this Lent, let us, together with our Franciscan Friars of St Mary’s, join forces to make amends for our sins against God’s Creation – by embarking on this Lenten journey of conversion from Cosmic Dust to an Easter Garden!
Join us in giving thanks to God for the furry and feathery creatures that bring us so much joy and companionship!
The service was broadcasted live on our Franciscan Friars Youtube Channel.

Watch the video to find out how our youths did on this challenge and learn how our faith plays an integral part in living a sustainable lifestyle and caring for our common home.Β
Why do we, as Christians, have a share in the responsibility of caring for our common home? How are we praising God through the caring for creation?
Friar Derrick sheds light on Pope Francis’ encyclical Laudato Si’, helping us to understand the heart of our faith. It is through our identity as God’s creation, that we recognise all of creation are our brothers and sisters, for God is our Creator and through Him we were made.
As we celebrate the annual Season of Creation every September, may we truly realise how caring for creation is an integral part of living out our faith.
