Does Laudato Si matter to you?
Was Laudato Si a “blip” or a “game changer”? An important question, no doubt. But a more important question for us is, does Laudato Si matter to you…and the Vincentian Family?
Someone recently said of the Church “We’re collectively the largest global humanitarian network in the world.”
On the anniversary of Laudato Si’, we recall that Pope Francis states that it is a moral imperative to act. It seems that many in our church structures and we as individuals are still not realizing the local and global meaning of this call.
Below are some links about the Catholic response to Laudato Si’.
