Catholic Climate Covenant and The Association of United States Catholic Priests invite you to a free, virtual two-part workshop series on how to launch the Vatican’s Laudato Si’ Action Platform in your diocese, parish, school, ministry, or organization! 🌎💒

In the last decade, Pope Francis has led the Catholic Church to take unprecedented steps toward solving our current climate crisis. Join us to explore the overall goal of Laudato Si’, “to discover what each of us can do about caring for our common home.” (Laudato Si’ 19).
