Everyone is welcome at St Andrew's Church in Wissett for a special Creationtide and Breakfast Church Service. Followed by croissants and coffee.
Creationtide is the period in the annual church calendar from 1st September to 4th October, dedicated to God as Creator and Sustainer of life.
The theme for the season of Creation 2024 is to hope and act with creation.
In the letter of Paul the apostle the biblical image pictures the Earth as a Mother groaning in childbirth (Romans 8:22)
We are not caring for the Earth as a gift from God, but rather using it as a resource to be exploited.
Yet there is hope and expectation for a better future. To hope in a biblical context does not mean to stand still and quiet, but rather groaning, crying and actively striving for new life amidst the struggles. Just as on childbirth we go through a period of intense pain, but a new life springs forth.
