Ecumenical Social Justice Stations of the Cross: March 29
Join us for a prayerful, inter-faith, community walk. A day that seeks to acknowledge the social issues faced by our communities and reflect on Jesus’ journey to the cross. The event will begin at 12:00pm at New Vision Church, McNab St. Hamilton. It will finish at 2:00pm at St. Paul’s Presbyterian Church, where soup will be served.
Meaningful Dialogue Guides for Small Group Discussion
The forum released the Care for our Common Home Dialogue Guide as a tool for parishes, schools, community groups, to engage with the Holy Father’s Encyclical, Laudato Si. The forum recently released a new resource, A Dialogue Guide on Justice and Right Relationships. It focuses on listening to and centring Indigenous Voices. Both guides are ideal for small group discussion, and include comprehensive instructions on how to facilitate meaningful discourse on important social issues.
The 5 Anniversary of Laudato Si'
It has been five years since the release of Laudato Si’, the remarkable encyclical written by Pope Francis on the environmental crisis affecting our planet.
