Laudato Si’ Week 2023 will be celebrated May 21-28 with the film “The Letter” to mark the eighth anniversary of Pope Francis’ landmark encyclical on care for creation.

 

This global celebration will unite Catholics to rejoice in the progress we have made in bringing Laudato Si’ to life, and show how the protagonists of “The Letter” are already doing so.

This May we celebrate the diversity of the people and talents within our movement. We invite you to join in prayer with your community in this month’s Laudato Si’ Encounter. In it, you’ll find:

  • a prayer to the Holy Spirit;
  • a reflection to promote the power of love by Friar Jacek Orzechowski F.M. of the Franciscan Action Network in Poland
  • the eco-conversion story of Aleksandra Ćwik-Mohanty, Laudato Si’ Animator from Warsaw, Poland, along with two images that for her represent the cry of creation and the song of creation;
  • an invitation to participate in Laudato Si’ Week;
  • and the Laudato Si’ Movement value of the month: Caring for one another.
