Happy Earth Day Everyone!
2020 is the 50th Anniversary of Earth Day and the 5th Anniversary of Laudato Si! Both events invite us to pause and reflect on the quality of our membership in the community of creation; both anniversaries cause us to ask ourselves, how consciously connected are we to our planet and Earth’s community of life?
The JPIC Department invites all who form the SSND province and wider network to consider using this prayer resource to celebrate Earth Day.
Take a few moments to read and reflect on this resource created by the Atlantic-Midwest and Central Pacific Provinces, "My work is loving the world".
Take Action on behalf of our planet. Contact your legislator to oppose EPA rollbacks and deregulation.
On Earth Day, please consider participating in Earth Day Live, which will be one of the world’s largest digital civic events organized around our care for our common home
Take a mindfulness walk, or take time at home to contemplate one manifestation of God in creation.
