Inspired by Laudato Si’

Pope Francis in his encyclical letter, Laudato Si’, invites everyone on the planet to reflect on the world around us and to respond to the signs of the time.

Climate change, which pushes our sisters and brothers across the world deeper into poverty, is just one symptom of a much bigger problem about how we organise our common home, the Earth. The Holy Father encourages us all, individually and as a community, to a change of heart; to “work with generosity and tenderness in protecting this world which God has entrusted to us”(#242) and to live simply so that others may simply live. It is “the Gospel of Creation” that encourages us to spread the Good News of our faith and inspires us to express our love for God by adopting an attitude of profound respect for ourselves, our neighbours and our beautiful sister earth.
