Caring for God's Creation

"Living our vocation to be protectors of God’s handiwork is essential to a life of virtue; it is not an optional or a secondary aspect of our Christian experience."
       -(Pope Francis, Laudato Si, #217)

CATHOLIC SOCIAL JUSTICE PRINCIPLE: CARE FOR GOD'S CREATION

"We show our respect for the Creator by our stewardship of creation.  Care for the earth is not just an Earth Day slogan, it is a requirement of our faith. We are called to protect people and the planet, living our faith in relationship with all of Gods creation. This environmental challenge has fundamental moral and ethical dimensions that cannot be ignored." 

MISSION STATEMENT

In response to our Catholic Social Teaching to care for all of God’s creations, Holy Rosary and Our Lady of Guadalupe parishes embrace our moral responsibility to protect all creation, locally and globally.  We are committed to work together, with each other (HR & OLG) and other organizations and faith based communities to provide education, formation and prayerful action and advocacy.  We strive to conserve and protect resources and promote policies designed to achieve these goals.

New members are always welcome to join.  Please see "Upcoming Events" for our next meeting.
