Laudato Si Week: May 21-28 2023

Please pray for our eco conversion. On 25 May, we invite you to join us in an online interactive discussion of "The Letter - A Message for our Earth", a powerful documentary film that sheds light on the urgent need to address the climate and biodiversity crises.

The film, "The Letter - A Message for our Earth", follows the journeys of five change-makers from different parts of the world who share their stories of hope and determination to make a difference. We believe this film has a profound message that will inspire you to join us in our commitment to care for the environment.

To participate in this facilitated conversation, we kindly ask that you watch the documentary beforehand. You can access it by following this link https://youtu.be/Rps9bs85BII

Then, on 25 May, we will gather virtually to discuss the message of the film and explore how we can take meaningful action to address the environmental challenges we face. This is a wonderful opportunity to connect with like-minded individuals and engage in a thought-provoking conversation.

To register for the event, please follow this link:

We encourage you to sign up early, as space is limited.

 

A Prayer of Gratitude for Creation

God of the Universe, we thank you for your many good gifts
For the beauty of Creation and its rich and varied fruits
For clean water and fresh air, for food and shelter, animals and plants.
Forgive for the times we have taken the earth’s resources for granted
And wasted what You have given us. Transform our hearts and minds
So that we would learn to care and share,
To touch the earth with gentleness and love,
Respecting all living things.
We pray for all those who suffer as a result of our waste, greed and indifference,
And we pray that the day would come when everyone has enough food and clean water.
Help us to respect the rights of all people and all species
And help us to willingly share your gifts today and always. Amen.

( Fiona Murdoch, Eco- Congregation Ireland)
