Pope Francis has invited Catholics everywhere to participate in Laudato Si’ Week, 16-24 May. We’re coming together as a Catholic family to reflect, pray, and prepare for a more just and sustainable tomorrow.

Agustina Rodríguez Ortiz de Rozas and Verónica Galindez planned on hosting an in-person meeting with Argentine Laudato Si’ Animators this month. But, like most well-organized intentions during the COVID-19 pandemic, their plans were derailed.

Italians Francesco Maria Di Pietro and Massimiliano Muzio can’t recreate their first Ride 4 Creation across Italy. But they’re still finding ways to celebrate Laudato Si’ and its message of ecological conversion ahead of Laudato Si’ Week.

We Catholic musicians want to share two important messages: Firstly, that we are in God’s hands, that we must not lose hope. Secondly, to constantly remember what the authorities tell us: “Stay at home.” It’s one of the main ways to fight the virus.

In May, Lilley will rip up the ryegrass on the 600-square-foot strip of land to plant a garden that will help the farm fight climate change and bring back vital pollinators.

Ahead of the fifth anniversary of his groundbreaking encyclical, Pope Francis calls us to participate in Laudato Si’ Week, to be held 16-24 May.

Since Pope Francis published Laudato Si’, Catholic communities everywhere have taken concrete steps to reduce their environmental impact, connected to the Creator in prayer, and encouraged the development of moral environmental policies.
