Just 2 days away!

In two days, Pope Francis will publish his eagerly anticipated encyclical on ecology, Laudato Si (Praised Be). Such a historic moment!

So we have prepared two things to start celebrating it in advance.

First, we prepared a short video that reviews how Pope Francis is calling for climate action building on top of a long Catholic tradition of creation stewardship:

Second, to thank Pope Francis and encourage people to take action on climate change we have initiated a SpreadShout campaign.

SpreadShout is a new platform that allows individuals like you to share our movement's most important updates through your Facebook and Twitter accounts. On Thursday at noon Vatican time, the exact moment when the encyclical will be published online, we'll send a SpreadShout celebrating and thanking Pope Francis for issuing the Laudato Si encyclical. Will you join us?
 

In these days leading up to the encyclical release, let us pray that the hearts and minds of all people be open to receive his message and be inspired into action.

God bless,

Christina on behalf of the GCCM team
