Celebrating Creation Time at the Parish of Sean McDermott Street, Dublin

Fr Hugh O’Donnell shared with ECI how the Parish of Sean McDermott Street, Dublin is celebrating Creation Time 2018.

The parishioners used the brochure for the ‘Curious Creatures: Frans Post and Brazil‘ exhibition in the National Gallery of Ireland as inspiration for their Creation Time thoughts and prayers.  This exhibition portrayed images of creatures drawn by Frans Post in seventeenth century Brazil.

These creatures are now described as seriously threatened like the South American Tapir, Jaguar, Giant Anteater and the critically endangered Spider Monkey. People could see these fascinating creatures as they entered the church.
