Over 80 members of the Passionist Family registered for a special Zoom forum, Passionists Engage Laudato Siˊ. The event was a joint gathering of lay and vowed members of the Passionist family from St. Paul of the Cross & Holy Cross Provinces.
At this special Zoom event, we affirmed our personal and corporate commitment to the LSAP and celebrated how we are already in motion, responding to the Action Platform goals and the interconnected Cry of Earth and Cry of the Poor.
Provincials Fr. Joe Moons, CP, and Fr. Jim O’Shea, CP, began with their own strong encouragement and support for our Provinces’ seven-year journey toward fulfilling our own Laudato Si' Action Platform goals.
“May we be attentive to the Lord’s presence and respond to the path he is unfolding before us.”
Fr. Joachim Rego, CP
We learned the basics of Laudato Si' and the goals of the Action Platform in coordination with the leadership of the Congregation and the Catholic Church.
We heard from Fr. Don Senior, CP, on how strongly rooted the work of integral ecology is in our charism. And we were inspired by stories from throughout the province showing how folks are already making the goals of the Laudato Si' Action Platform a reality.
