Laudato Si’ Week: May 16-24
Laudato si’, the Pope’s encyclical letter on care for our common home will soon be marking its 5th anniversary of publication. This is the perfect time to coordinate a small group or individual study of that letter and learn how we can all become better stewards of all of God’s creation.

“Minnesota, Our Common Home” is a easy to understand resource from the Minnesota Catholic Conference, which translates the teachings of Laudato si’, into a local context. It proposes that our identity in Christ is one that is woven into a fabric of relationships—with God, with our bodies, with our families, with our communities, and, indeed, all of creation. Fostering right relationships is the essence of what our popes call “integral ecology,” and the document invites all people of good will to consider how these principles apply in their daily lives as sons and daughters of God.

“Minnesota, Our Common Home” is a great educational resource that can be studied from the comfort of your own home. It can be used individually, by families, or even by teachers who are looking for content to provide to their students who are learning at a distance.

Earth Day Program

Wednesday, April 22, 5:30 PM

Check out this great opportunity from the Archdiocese!

With all of us responding to COVID-19, Earth Day is coming at such a wonderful time. The Archdiocesan Care for Creation Team is planning its first event on Earth Day. Spend the day in nature: take a walk, bicycle, jog and enjoy the marvelous gift of nature. Of course, remember to observe social distancing as recommended by the CDC. Then at the end of the day, join fellow Catholics for a prayer vigil via Zoom. We look forward to seeing everyone and take the opportunity to enjoy Earth Day!

If you need to dial-in by phone, please contact Adam Fitzpatrick at fitzpatricka@archspm.org for instructions.

Who is God? Series

The mere mention of the word “Father” can stir a wide range of emotions: from security and joy to pain and resentment. Many teens today have fathers who are absent—either physically or emotionally. Some have never even met their biological fathers, and others may wish they hadn’t— because of the physical or emotional pain inflicted on them. How can these we trust or believe in a Heavenly Father when maybe our experience of our earthly fathers has been so negative? In this study we’ll begin to unwrap the mystery surrounding God the Father by taking a look at our deeply embedded image of what a “good” father is—and then we’ll learn how deeply God longs for us and waits for us to surrender our hearts to Him.
