Welcome to Peace! We’re so glad you found us.
Today, on the Feast of Saint Francis of Assisi, we unite with Christian communions around the world under the theme: Immersion in Living Water, inspired by Ezekiel’s vision. Chapter 47 of Ezekiel offers a powerful biblical vision of hope and ecological healing. Set amid exile and loss, the image of living water flowing from God’s sanctuary reveals divine healing that renews land, water, biodiversity, and human responsibility towards the whole creation.
The vision pictures water flowing from the Temple of God – at first a tiny stream which grows deeper and deeper and as it does so it brings life to dead areas and restores fertility to damaged or barren ecosystems. Through living water comes healing, but in order to receive new life we too must step into the water and also become part of God’s river of life, taking part in the healing of creation!
