Season of Creation
Kate Burke • September 9, 2025
Pilgrimage of Hope for Creation
As you listen to birds singing, leaves rustling in the breeze, and the joy of children playing outside, do you hear the Spirit-filled call to renew our relationship with God, with one another, and with all of creation during this Season of Creation?
As we celebrate the Jubilee of Hope, the 10th anniversary of Pope Francis’ Laudato Si’, and the
800th anniversary of St. Francis of Assisi’s Canticle of the Creatures, we invite you to journey
with us on this Pilgrimage of Hope: fostering faith, community, and a renewed commitment to caring for creation.
Join Pilgrims from across the midwest at the Catholic Ecology Center 1:00-3:30pm
- Reflections on environmental justice and advocacy
- Guided prayer walk (wheelchair accessible)
- Opportunities to participate in guided trail hike with examen, service, art, stations of the cross, or rosary all with an ecological focus
- Reflections on the beauty of creation, environmental justice, and advocacy
Required registation is FREE with the Catholic Ecology Center. This event will take place rain or shine.
