Designed for use during the ecumenical Season of Creation – the newest addition to the Christian liturgical year, spanning 34 days from 1 September – this profound book of devotion offers readers the opportunity to reflect thoughtfully and prayerfully on the wonder of God’s creation across the world

For each day of the season, John Mann – spiritual guide, pilgrimage leader and priest – presents a short passage of biblical scripture alongside a contemplative reflection inspired both by nature (predominantly from the unique landscapes of the British and Irish countrysides) and by the mystical and philosophical writings of Teilhard de Chardin, Simone Weil and Søren Kierkegaard. Each day’s reflection ends with a suggested prayer.

This is a unique resource for Christians seeking inspiration and inner enrichment during the Season of Creation, and will become a much-loved daily companion to be revisited year after year.

All royalties from the sale of this book will be given to the Manx Wildlife Trust.

John Mann is a writer living with his wife on the Isle of Man. His more than forty years as an Anglican priest included service as the Dean of Belfast Cathedral. He continues through the Island Spiritual Network to lead quiet days and retreats. He was awarded the Lambeth Cross for Ecumenism in 2018.
