The Season of Creation, September 1st to October 4th,  is a time to renew our relationship with our Creator and all creation  through celebration,  conversion, and commitment together. During the Season of Creation, we  join our sisters and brothers in the ecumenical family in prayer and  action for our common home.  September 1st was the World Day  of Prayer for Creation, but Pope Francis has  invited Catholics to participate in the whole season; “now is the time  to rediscover our vocation as children of God, brothers and sisters, and  stewards of creation. Now is the time to repent, to be converted and to  return to our roots…We are beloved creatures  of God, who in his goodness calls us to love life and live it in  communion with the rest of creation. For this reason, I strongly  encourage the faithful to pray in these days that, as the result of a  timely ecumenical initiative, are being celebrated as a Season  of Creation."
