National Climate Demonstration 2026 📢 🌍
📅Save the Date: Saturday, 14 November 2026
Mark it in your calendar, spread the word to friends and family, and dust off your placards! ✊
Last year, thousands of people took to the streets of Dublin to demand climate action and an end to our dependence on fossil fuels.
This year, we’re coming together once again to make our voices heard, organised by @stopclimatechaosire
The need for action has never been greater. We have just experienced the the hottest summer on record, and the impacts of climate change are becoming impossible to ignore. Together, we must act to stop climate chaos.

Season of Creation 2026
The Season of Creation starts on 1st September, and runs until 4th October. It’s a time when Christians are reminded of our role in and responsibility for caring for creation. The theme of the Season this year is “Living Waters”. In the celebration guide (https://drive.google.com/…/1WeWEjt…/view) you will find lots of useful resources, suggestions for holding prayer services outdoors near water (to go with the ‘Living Waters’ theme), a list of interesting online screenings, and much more.

Returning grounds to nature
In the grounds of the Dominican Convent on the Falls Road in Belfast, we estimate that around 40% of the grounds have been given over to wildflower meadows and to nature. Sr Susie O’Rawe has been overseeing the transformation, and sees evidence of increased numbers of bees, insects and birds, as can be seen in these photos.

Sr Colette working with students in Connecticut
Over the weekend Sr Colette collaborated with Srs Arlene Flaherty (Blauvelt OP) and Anne Curtis (RSM) to deliver a programme for University Students at Mercy By the Sea, retreat centre, Connecticut. Three objectives of the programme were: to support the present college age generation in their efforts to understand the scope and scale of Earth’s crisis of sustainability, and how it is impacting the wider community of life (Integral Ecology); to invite students to the creation centered spirituality and theology embedded in Laudato Si’ and other important writings, with the hope that this emerging theology and related spiritual practices will energize their faith, their lives, and their work in the world; to immerse students in the ecology of Mercy By The Sea – as a learning lab. From the evaluations it is clear it was a great success.
