This resource is a Word document containing a year's worth of quotes from Laudato Si' (the Pope's encyclical letter about the environment) for use in a church bulletin. This file was created by the Creation Care Council of Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Grove City, OH, and submitted to their church bulletin editor. The result is that each weekly bulletin for the church services contains a quote related to creation care, which keeps the teaching of Laudato Si' current on a weekly basis. By creating a single file with enough quotes for a year, the CCC provided the bulletin editor with easily accessible material, requiring a minimum of follow-up time and energy.
A daily calendar of actions, reflections, meditations and ideas for creation care during the Season of Creation, which runs from Sept. 1 until Oct. 5. This calendar was created by members of Our Lady of Perpetual Help in Grove City, OH, and can be readily adapted for use by others. The creators suggest editing the activities for Sept. 8 and Oct. 4, which are specific to options in their own community.
This book was first published at the beginning of the twenty-first century. A joint project of the United Nations Environment Programme and the Interfaith Partnership for the Environment, it was titled Earth and Faith: A Book of Reflection for Action. The partners printed tens of thousands of copies and gave them to schools, congregations, and communities throughout the
world. The book described the growing threats to our planet’s life support systems, the reverence all faiths share for life on Earth, and the responsibility that people have to future generations.
