Above, we see Sisters Margaret Rose and Anna planting the Creation Time crocus bulbs at Drumalis at the beginning of September. The bulbs planted now are a sign of hope for the future.
As Drumalis slowly begins to welcome in-house guests back to stay and restrictions gradually ease, they pray that by spring 2022, visitors will be there in person to enjoy the beauty of the crocuses in bloom.
This was not the only way in which Creation Time has been marked at Drumalis. Sr Margaret Rose along with Sr Anne Harnett CP ran a three-part weekly series by Zoom in September entitled “Earth Matters,” providing a creation time opportunity to engage with the ecological issues of our day and exploring a way forward for all. The series has proved extremely popular with almost forty in attendance each week, covering topics such as Laudato Si, Climate Crisis, Biodiversity, Covid-19 and COP26.
