The Catholic Climate Covenant is making available its 2020 Feast of St. Francis program. The full 90-minute educational program can be downloaded here for individual or group use.
The Feast of St. Francis programs is framed through St. Francis’ famous prayer, the “Canticle of Creatures,” which he wrote to illuminate our current journey. The program ends by offering ways to act, including courageous conversations with friends and family, learning more about our civic duties as Catholics, pledging to vote and ways to embrace the call to protect life, our vulnerable communities and neighbors and God’s creation.
