Let All Creation Praise: Pet Blessings, Advent, and Creation in Christ Sunday

Creation care themes weave through the church year, inviting us to deepen our worship and discipleship. This free webinar will help you explore these themes for the coming months—starting with pet blessings and Advent practices, while also preparing your congregation for something new: Creation in Christ Sunday, a new church holiday born out of an ecumenical movement centered around worship of God as Creator and how we respond to God’s creative activity among us.

Worship planners, worship leaders, and all who want to integrate creation care into the church's worshiping life are invited to explore pet blessing liturgies, Advent themes, and practical ways to help your congregation recognize the sacred connection between worship, creation, and Christian discipleship. You'll discover ready-to-use resources and ideas you can adapt for your community, because worship planning doesn't have to start from scratch.

Beyond this fall and winter, we will also introduce you to Creation in Christ Sunday—how it came to be, current developments, and ways you can begin preparing to celebrate. This webinar is designed to build awareness and confidence now, so you and your congregation can participate fully in this hopeful development as part of the worldwide church's worship of God as Creator of all things and commitment to tend all God’s creation with care and justice.
