In the Voices of Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit, the Planet Cries Out for Defenders...

In the midst of global fire, earthquake and flood - as species are going extinct every day and the shadow of climate change looms - the planet doesn't need another church or religion. 

What it needs is a new Order:...a sacred community and movement: 
...A movement of communities welcoming all the peoples of Earth: our varied belief systems (or non-belief systems), genders, races, classes, abilities, and nations.
...A deeply spiritual movement, free of religious institutions and grounded in the Wisdom traditions of both East and West, in leading-edge science and indigenous tradition.
...A radically inclusive Order of mystic activists, uniting our energy and intention in one sacred vow:

“I promise to be the best lover and defender of the Earth that I can be.”

See upcoming OSE events in the calendar above, and learn more about how you can participate in and support the Order at OrderOfTheSacredEarth.org

A Call to Humanity for the Sake of Life on Earth

In 2015, Pope Francis released his encyclical, LAUDATO SI’: ON CARE FOR OUR COMMON HOME, calling all people of all nations and creeds to radical and unified environmental, social, and cultural change to protect the possibility of life on Earth. 

Shortly afterward, Matthew Fox responded, linking LAUDATO SI’ to the longstanding Creation Spirituality tradition and adding further questions and challenges addressing the looming dangers of these times. 

As these dangers grow increasingly dire, Matthew Fox invites you, personally, to download these two documents at right and gather with friends, civic and spiritual groups, and family to explore their questions and take bold and inspired action, whether in partnership with the Order of the Sacred Earth or with a group of your choice. 

The time to act to protect our Mother is now.

"(Matthew Fox's) creation spirituality is the spirituality of the future, and his theology of the Cosmic Christ is the theology of the future…"

~~ Bede Griffiths, OSB

Matthew Fox holds a doctorate in spirituality from the Institut Catholique de Paris and has authored 35 books on spirituality and contemporary culture that have been translated into 60 languages. Fox has devoted 45 years to developing and teaching the tradition of Creation Spirituality and in doing so has reinvented forms of education and worship.  His work is inclusive of today’s science and world spiritual traditions and has awakened millions to the much neglected earth-based mystical tradition of the West. Among his books are Original Blessing, The Coming of the Cosmic Christ, The Reinvention of Work, A Spirituality Named Compassion and Meister Eckhart: A Mystic-Warrior for Our Times.

Fox founded the University of Creation Spirituality in Oakland, California in 1996 where where he was President and professor until 2005. He speaks regularly at professional and community gatherings around the world, and has led a renewal of liturgical forms with "The Cosmic Mass," which mixes dance, techno and live music, DJ, VJ, rap and contemporary art forms with the Western liturgical tradition. He is a recipient of the Peace Abbey Courage of Conscience Award; other recipients have included the Dalai Lama, Mother Teresa and Rosa Parks. A visiting scholar at the Academy for the Love of Learning in Santa Fe, NM, and elsewhere, he resides in the San Francisco Bay Area, California.
