Recycling
Every item we throw away has a right place. A piece of paper. A plastic bottle. A can.
When we throw things into the wrong bin, we break the journey. We lose the chance to give that item a new life.
As Pope Francis reminds us in Laudato Si’, caring for creation begins with our everyday choices.
Recycle right.
LAUDATO SI
VEGETARIAN BREAKFAST
2nd Sunday of the Month
After 9.30am EC
Michael’s Patio
Pope Francis writes in his encyclical, “Living our vocation to be protectors of God’s handiwork is essential to a life of virtue; it is not an optional or a secondary aspect of our Christian experience.
Come join us for our Laudato Si’ vegetarian breakfast, happening every 2nd Sunday of the month, after the 9.30 EC at Michael’s Patio.
Learn how to care for our common home through fellowship and fun Laudato Si’ activities.
