laudato si': caring for our common home
-
a renewed call to action
Pope Francis has invited the whole world to take up with renewed vigor the challenge of rescuing and caring for the earth which is our Common Home. This action platform is meant to help those who want to increase their commitment to bringing Laudato Si to life by promoting a set of actions over a period of seven years. You take steps, but you take them with your family, in your school, in your parish--so you can foster change among those around you.

about our environmental justice ministry
-
The Environmental Justice Ministry seeks to provide resources to help educate parishes about the Catholic Social Teaching behind environmental justice and prepare them to work towards caring for God's creation.
"I hope that as we become more aware of our responsibility to care for nature and the earth, we will also be moved to care more for our neighbors —especially the poor."
-Bishop Michael C. Barber, SJ
