You are invited to gather with the larger Catholic community of the region, ecumenical faith leaders, our neighbors, and those who have worked tirelessly in the Northwest to protect God’s creation. We will honor the Holy Father’s call to protect Earth’s atmosphere, oceans, and the most vulnerable of God’s children.
6pm Pre-event tour of parish solar panels, children’s solar kiosk, rain garden, and sustainable building
7pm Celebration of Praised Be in words and song
8pm Closing & commissioning of all people to take action to protect God’s creation
The words of Pope Francis are timely in the Northwest as glaciers melt, drought deepens, and fossil fuel projects threaten not only Native communities, the poor, and local ecosystems, but all of us. In this kairos moment for our faith and our world, let us come together in hope and go out in action as we live into Pope Francis’ call to care for all creation. Please join us!
