Welcome to EarthAbbey

EarthAbbey is a movement of people helping one another to live more in tune with the earth. We work to promote

• A rich relational life between human beings
• A compassion toward the earth and its creatures
• A sense of interconnectedness of all life
• Wisdom and justice in relationships
• Human fulfilment and the nurture of the inner life
• A way of living that leaves the earth better than we found it

Our inspiration derives from Jesus of Nazareth whose life and mission was to bring about a peace which embraces all creation.  We pursue a life-affirming, creative spirtuality that is open to all. EarthAbbey is more than a website. It is a movement of people and you are invited to join.

EarthAbbey’s community growing project Grow Zones is looking for people interested in starting a group in their own area. If you’d like to know more ... click here.

The Earth is sacred?

How do we think about the Earth? A scientist might describe it as a planet circling the sun. An economist might say it was a provider of ‘ecosystem services’ to human beings. But what do you say? I wonder if the Earth can only properly be considered as being in the realm of the sacred?

Flourishing

All around us Spring is in full flow. Life is flourishing. But what about ourselves? Are we taking the time to furnish our lives with those things that allow us to flourish along with the rest of nature?
