Sparks of the Universe – Jennifer Callanan

Responding to the Pope’s exhortation in Laudato Si, the rituals in Sparks of the Universe invite stillness, deep listening, communal reflection.

“Ecological Spirituality calls us to encourage greater contact with the natural world in a spirit of wonder, praise, joy and gratitude, and promote creation-centred rituals and prayers.
(LS, goal 6)

“…we will need to start to begin by creating prayers and liturgies that support this new engagement and new spirituality and new ethics with creation (Sean McDonough)

Resource for: 

• Educators
• Students
• Parents
• Children’s Liturgy Co-ordinators
• Everyone committed to awakening Ecological Awareness

Sparks of the Universe draws on the wisdom of tradition and contemporary culture, using language and ideas that are accessible for young people.

The simplicity of the rituals makes this resource a great asset for bringing action to prayer and stillness.”
