LAUDATO SI'?
Laudato Si’ is an encyclical (a letter) written by Pope
Francis in June 2015 and addressed not only to all
Catholics, but to everyone in the world. Laudato Si’ – On
the Care of our Common Home, is a real challenge to us
all. Pope Francis teaches us that a right relationship with
the Earth and the whole of creation is as much part of
the Church’s moral teaching as a right relationship with
God and our neighbour. Laudato Si’ urges us to change
our lifestyle, to treat nature with respect, to be deeply
aware of the interconnectedness of all God’s creation
and to live simply and without wastefulness.

Speak Out
Please sign CAFOD’s petition to urge the Prime Minister to work with other world leaders during the coronavirus pandemic to support developing countries, where poverty is widespread and healthcare systems fragile, through cancelling debt payments due in 2020 and 2021 so that countries can spend money on much needed healthcare and through putting plans in place to rebuild a fairer, more just society after the crisis and to restore our common home for future generations
