Happy Earth Day 2024. The theme for Earthday.org 2024 is Planet vs. Plastics and to mark that Earthday.org has called for a 60% global reduction in plastic production by 2040.

Over the years, the Shrine of Saint Jude has tried to reduce its plastic use across the site, including the ban of plastic candles – now all recyclable glass. We endeavour to keep caring for the environment wherever and whenever we can – whether it be the 'Garden of Hope' or using recycled paper for our printing, or using sustainable bamboo paper in the toilets. 

• Read reflections and prayers on God's Creation.
