How will we honour Earth Day 2018? 

Perhaps we could begin day in gratitude to our Creator God and to mother earth who provides for all our needs. This  Reflection may help.

Perhaps we might also on this day perform an action and begin a new process of thinking and acting now and into the future. Why not take the time to plant some seeds as the video suggests! 

We also need to be aware that the theme this year is 'Ending Plastic Pollution' . We all contribute to this problem and it is impacting negatively on our environment and on our health and well-being. Perhaps we could
 begin the process of eliminating 'one use' plastic products from our shopping lists!

This all links with something Pope Francis says in Gaudete et Exsultate...

"Let us not forget that Jesus asked his disciples to pay attention to details. The little detail that wine was running out at a party. The little detail that one sheep was missing. The little detail of noticing the widow who offered her two small coins. The little detail of having spare oil for the lamps, should the bridegroom delay. The little detail of asking the disciples how many loaves of bread they had. The little detail of having a fire burning and a fish cooking as he waited for the disciples at daybreak.

Little details can make a huge difference..... Perhaps our little, added to the little of another, can help us redress the problems of a throwaway culture - as this second  video shows.

We are in it together.... May the Lord bless and use our efforts.


May our Creator God and His wonderful life-sustaining earth bless you this day!
