Events

Creationtide, or the Season of Creation, takes place between 1 September and 4 October 2025. This year, Christians around the world are celebrating the theme of 'Peace with Creation'.

A guide for the 2025 season is available, so let’s pray, learn, and take action – caring for God’s world and working for peace and justice.
