As we begin the penitential season of Lent I have beenreflecting on our responsibility to care for God’s creation, to repent of the damage we have caused, and to find ways of working together for the healing and regeneration of the natural environment.

 In this conversation with Kiah Holley, a member of theOld Deanery team, I explore what we can do individually, as church communities and as a Diocese. I am grateful to Martin Carr from the Compassionate Communities team for the way in which he shaped the thinking behind this podcast. The team’s work on this theme is signposted here Caring for God's Creation | Compassionate Communities (compassionatecommunitieslondon.org.uk), along with a map of the parishes who are engaged in this area of mission, and details of the Episcopal Area Leads.
