Pope Francis lays down a clear message for us: Our very existence is interdependent with Creation. We are called to have a spirituality informed by integral ecology and a ministry which gives priority to ecological education as a path to mission.
Join us for our interactive Advanced Missionary Discipleship Formation Seminar as we use the lens of integral ecology as outlined in Pope Francis' encyclical Laudato Si' to explore the intersections of our own lived experiences, our ministries, global solidarity, and economic justice!
Our week will include immersion into indigenous spirituality, the environment, and sustainable development; opportunities for ecological conversion rooted in our faith and Catholic tradition; social analysis and exploration of our global context; and prayer and reflection.
We as Catholics are rooted in our faith and all of Creation: join us to break open how we act courageously to be living signs of God's love in our interconnected world!
