Living God’s Call to Care for Creation

Saturday, April 20, 6pm in Creedon Hall

Join us for dinner and a presentation by Jose Aguto, the Executive Director of the Catholic Climate Covenant whose mission is to help US Catholics respond to the church’s call to care for creation and the poor. He will present how simple lifestyle changes can have a positive effect on the sustainability of our common home.

“The urgent challenge to protect our common home includes a concern to bring the whole human family together to seek a sustainable and integral development, for we know that things can change. The Creator does not abandon us; He never forsakes His loving plan or repents of having created us. Humanity still has the ability to work together in building our common home.” -Pope Francis, Laudato Si
