Laudato si’ Week, 16-24 May 2020

6 March 2020 by

What kind of world do we want to leave to those who will come after us, to children who are growing up?

This year is the fifth anniversary of the publication of Laudato si’, an encyclical on caring for our common home. For the occasion, Pope Francis released a message inviting all people of good will to participate in a week dedicated to promoting the message of his second encyclical:

I renew my urgent call to respond to the ecological crisis. “The cry of the Earth and the cry of the poor” cannot continue. Let’s take care of creation, a gift of our good Creator God. Let’s celebrate “Laudato si’” Week together.
