There you can also find a free five-part group reflection guide, Creation Covenant, currently available in English at http://ecospiritualityresources.com/lent.

Also, in February http://ecospiritualityresources.com/blog will post a ritual for Ash Wednesday that expands our dust-remembrance by celebrating our coming from stardust and by reflecting on the marvel of dust.
