The Sixth Sunday of Easter is often called Rogation Sunday. There is an emphasis on God the Creator, and gratitude for all he provides, which becomes clear if you pay attention to the words in the hymns. Rogation Sunday prepares us for the Rogation Days to follow.

Among the sermons in the archive that can help you understand God as creator, consider these:

The Father Almighty, Maker of Heaven and Earth (2011) by Fr Spurlock
All Ours as Gift (2008) by Fr Austin
Thanksgiving Day 2002 by Fr Stafford

Collect:

O God, who hast prepared for those who love thee such good things as pass man’s understanding: Pour into our hearts such love toward thee, that we, loving thee in all things and above all things, may obtain thy promises, which exceed all that we can desire; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who liveth and reigneth with thee and the Holy Spirit, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
