Season of Creation Zoom Event: To hope and act with Creation - rooted in Laudato Si' and Laudate Deum
The Care of Creation Office of the Bishops’ Conference has organised this session to enable us to discern how the insights of Pope Francis' 2015 encyclical Laudato Si' and his 2023 apostolic exhortation Laudate Deum can lead us to hope and act with creation.
Our companion for the session is Fr Josh Kureethadam who was the Coordinator of the Sector of “Ecology” at the Vatican Dicastery for Promoting Integral Human Development from 2017-2023, where he continues to serve as a consultant. Fr Josh will share not only a sense of awe and wonder before the grandeur and majesty of the universe, but also a deep sense of concern for the increasingly precarious state of our common planetary home.
The session is on Thursday 19th September - 7:00 - 8:30pm and you can register at: https://zoom.us/meeting/register/tJ0scO2hrzwtE9E8gDiyJLbQZJ1rbdLXja36
