The Diocese is reflecting theologically on environmental issues this year through the Christian Life project “All Creation Waits…” (funded by a grant from the Benefact Trust). To continue these reflections, a reflection activity will be posted each day (in the Food for Thought section of this website).
Each week, the whole week’s material will be posted at the beginning – the reflections and activities can be done in any order you choose. There are activities outside – the weather may impact when you do them!
Longing is like the Seed
That wrestles in the Ground,
Believing if it intercede
It shall at length be found.The Hour, and the Clime —
Each Circumstance unknown,
What Constancy must be achieved
Before it see the Sun! – Longing is like the Seed by Emily Dickinson
Day 6: Growing conditions for seeds are impacted by climate change. Some seeds that thrived in areas, no longer do so.
Today you’re invited to find out about work being done around the world, such as drought resistant seeds, that enable seeds to grow with the changing world.
