"Our goal is . . .to become painfully aware, to dare to turn what is happening
to the world into our own personal suffering and thus
to discover what each of us can do about it."
- Pope Francis, Laudato si #19

You are invited on a Lenten journey to contemplate your role in caring for all of God’s creation. Pope Francis has invited the world to participate in the Laudato Si Action Platform, and the Marianist Environmental Education Center(MEEC) is helping to share this call to ecological conversion. Whether you are thinking of your congregation, school, organization, or just your own household, the Laudato Si Action Platform aims to help you better care for our common home.

The Marianist Family of North America has committed to the Platform, and you are invited to join us too. From now through Easter, a different Platform goal will be highlighted each week with opportunities for learning, reflection and action. Come join us on this journey!

These reflections are written by Matt Naveau with contributions from the MEEC staff.
