'....as we approach the end of this Pope-given season ... we need to carry our pro-active concern beyond the 4th of October. Care of this gift should become part of our way of life, a constant and on-going part of our decision-making. I am not talking about ‘saving the planet’. The planet will look after itself one way or another. What I am talking about is valuing a gift from a loving and generous God.
We unite in celebrating creation in every Mass, knowing that Our Lord takes what we offer and transforms it into His New Creation, the Bread of Life.'
The Rt Rev Paul Swarbrick
Bishop of Lancaster
