Greetings from the Carmelite JPIC Team,
Pope Francis' new encyclical on the Environment is soon to be released; and
with people of every nation, we also celebrate World Environment Day on 5th JUNE.
Attached is the June e-newsletter for your prayerful reflection on these two events.

On a summer morning I sat down on a hillside
to think about God
a worthy pastime.
Near me, I saw a single cricket;
it was moving the grains of the hillside
this way and that way.
How great was its energy,
how humble its effort.
Let us hope
it will always be like this,
each of us going on
in our inexplicable ways
building the universe.
