Laudato Si’ Week began as a way to celebrate the first anniversary of Pope Francis’ world-changing encyclical letter, “Laudato Si’: On Care For Our Common Home.”
This year we celebrate the seventh anniversary with a theme, “Listening and Journeying Together.”
Catholics on six continents, with speakers from around the world will share their knowledge, passion and work to unite all people to respond to the holiness of creation and to work to bring “the human family together to protect our common home” (LS 13).
Attached is a bookmark prayer that was created by Sr. Mary Ann Culpert of the General Government.
