Creation Sunday

Creation responsibility can be a neglected aspect of our Christian faith. Perhaps there is an opportunity to address this in creative ways. A moment in which Jesus’ great command to ‘love God and neighbour as you love yourself’ invites us to faithfully extend that to love of our ‘neighbourhood’, each local patch, as well the entire earth.

Some congregations are choosing to address this by having a worship service on the theme of creation. While the resources offered below are intended to support a focused emphasis for a Creation Sunday service, it is important to be reminded that creation themes run throughout Scripture. As such, there are endless opportunities to highlight care for God’s world across the church year, weaving creation responsibility naturally into ongoing worship, preaching, and discipleship.

Creation Sunday Resources 2026

These resources are designed to help church leaders lead congregations in worship and reflection around the theme The Earth Is the Lord’s, grounded in Psalm 24. At the heart of this theme is the biblical affirmation that creation belongs to God and that humanity is called to live as grateful, responsible stewards of what He has made.

The materials include an idea for a sermon outline, suggested hymns and contemporary worship songs, a prayer of response, and some ideas for a corporate practical response that could engage all ages. 

The following short film features stories from two congregations (First Portadown and Fitzroy) who are responding creatively and faithfully to creation care in their own contexts, offering encouragement and inspiration for others.  You may wish to show this during a Creation Sunday Service.

The Earth is the Lord’s resources, including its branding and PowerPoint templates, can be accessed from the links in the Resource Downloads box at the side of this page.
