On this beautiful harvest day

We celebrate the wonder and joy of creation

A beauty that brings sustenance, hope and healing to the human soul.

We recognise that we are not masters of creation but co-creators

Helping the beauty and glory of the world to unfold.

Without beauty our lives become arid and lifeless.

In each of us there is a spirit of imagination and creativity,

A resonant voice through which we can express who we really are

And experience the radiant joy of the natural beauty that surrounds us

Through this harvest festival we share in the rhythm of nature and the continuous wonder of creation.

And in this way we have the privilege of becoming co-creators of the universe.
