Today, Sept. 1, we observe the World Day of Prayer for the Care of Creation, a day Pope Francis established in 2015 to invite Catholics around the world to pray for creation and renew our commitment to caring for our common home.

Today also begins the Season of Creation, which continues through Oct. 4, the feast of St. Francis of Assisi.

In his message for this year’s World Day of Prayer, Pope Leo XIV reminds us that the wounds of our world – violence, injustice, and ecological destruction – are deeply connected. Caring for creation calls us not only to change what is around us, but also to allow God to renew what is within us.

As Dominican Sisters and Associates, we are called to live in right relationship with all creation. Today, we pray for the healing of our wounded world and for the courage to become part of that healing.

May we move, as Pope Leo writes, “slowly but surely, from desert to garden, from division to communion, and from violence to peace.”
