ASSISI (PG), Oct. 5 – Season of Creation concluded yesterday with the feast of St. Francis. As it does every year, and as per its vocation, the city of the Poverello, Terra Laudato Si’, lived this entire period with a great variety of initiatives, planning and living all the events with each of the Partners of the project, involving local realities and a large number – always growing – of citizens and pilgrims.
“Peace with creation,” said Antonio Caschetto, director of the Laudato Si’ Center, “is born first of all in the heart of each of us. It is here that, if we leave space for silence and dialogue, we can listen to God speaking to us through the beauty of his creation. This is the first seed of peace among us, for which we feel a great thirst today more than ever. In Assisi, in this Time of Creation, we are witnesses to so many seeds of hope, planted together with our fellow travelers, never alone.”
