Creation time is organised by the Council of Churches Together in Britain and Ireland (CTBI). Creation Time 2011 runs from 1st September to 4th October and can be integrated into harvest festival activities to promote sustainable living.
This year's theme is "Our Daily Bread - Food in God's Creation":
'What's the food like?', 'Who is providing the food?', 'Is there enough food to go round?' Our everyday talk constantly makes reference to food, which is no surprise, as food and drink are essentials for life and survival.
When we pray "Give us our daily bread" we are both acknowledging our dependence on God's generosity and our realisation that the answer to that prayer needs to include agriculture, commerce, sharing, trade-justice, animal welfare, diet and a host of other considerations.
