World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation

Today we took part in the first "World day of Prayer for the Care of Creation" which is to become an annual tradition. This day is to help us remember our promise to God to care for his creations as its custodians and to help us give thanks for the marvellous works that He has entrusted us with.

Prior to our prayer session we looked at a video that took us on a journey from the beauty of our world as God had made it to the destruction of our world through human hands.

Following watching this video we discussed why these changes had occurred and what our role as believers of God and guardians of all that is his world is...no matter how small every little thing counts.

Some of the things we thought of were; picking up rubbish, encouraging others not to litter, promote replanting of trees, dune plants etc, looking after what already exists in our own environments at home, school and our school community.

Following our prayer session we watched a second video that once again reminded us of the glory of God's Creation.
